[Bug 1578796] Re: 1.127.22 causes wifi instability on Intel N7260 chipset
Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer
to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest
v4.6 kernel[0].
If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following
tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.
If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag:
'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.
Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as
"Confirmed".
Thanks in advance.

Title:
1.127.22 causes wifi instability on Intel N7260 chipset
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
OS: Linux Mint 17 Qiana (based on Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty)
Package Version: linux-firmware 1.127.22.0
After upgrading to 1.127.22, my wifi on my lenovo x240 became
unstable. It would connect, then after less than ten minutes it would
somehow disassociate from the AP, and only cycling the hardware wifi
switch would bring it back. A typical portion of /var/log/syslog
during the course of the problem would look like:

To walk you through it, I hardware-enabled wifi at the beginning of the log. By 19:44:17, wifi is up and working fine. At 19:48:55, the interface disassociates from the AP (reason=7). It tries to reconnect, but fails, and I don't notice until the end of the log, at which point I hardware disable wifi and the whole process starts all over.
Downgrading linux-firmware back to 1.127.20 solved this problem for
me.
I'm happy to test patches or temporarily upgrade back to 1.127.22 to
provide more detailed log info.
