This isn't the best way to report a bug. Please add a description of the
specific problems being seen with the wireless in the bug description,
then run 'apport-collect 1496027' in a terminal to attach machine
information and logs to this bug. If possible, it's preferable to attach
the logs after the machine has been experiencing problems so that the
logs might contain some relevant information.

As for the firmware version mismatch, that's actually normal for
iwlwifi. The driver supports a range of firmware versions and will
always load the latest version it supports. This may not match the
version reported in the module information that modinfo use to determine
the required firmware, but this is not a problem. If you wish to
experiment to see if this is a regression caused by the firmware you can
temporarily rename the newer firmware files in /lib/firmware to force
iwlwifi to load an older firmware version.
