[Bug 1577111] Re: RTL8821AE wireless adapter sporadically stuck (rtl8821ae module)

 

Gionn, to confirm, if you switch the router to 802.11g only (not
802.11n) does this improve the stability? Please ensure you are testing
the latest mainline kernel (now 4.7-rc5) when providing future testing
results.

Title:
  RTL8821AE wireless adapter sporadically stuck (rtl8821ae module)

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Hi,

  this is affecting me from 14.04, and new kernel in 16.04 didn't help,
  so I decided to open this issue.

  I've tried the following options:

  $ cat /etc/modprobe.d/rtl8821ae.conf
  options rtl8821ae ips=0 fwlps=0 swlps=1 debug=5 msi=0

  without any luck.

  I connect to a wireless network, works for a few minutes, then traffic
  completely stop for a few minutes, then everything works again, for
  another random amount of minutes.
