[Bug 1312358] [NEW] wifi intermittent on Macbook Pro Retina 10, 2 Ubuntu 14.04

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Problem: wifi is intermittent on my Macbook Pro and the logfile shows it's disconnecting
Hardware System: Macbook Pro Retina 13" version 10,2 early 2013
wifi firmware installed was default in Ubuntu 14.04 (mac 64bit OS) and synaptic shows the bcmwl-kernel-source to be installed
My wifi is: Broadcom 4331
The command lspci -nnk | grep -iA2 net shows the following:
Network controller [0200]: Broadcom ....... [14e4:16a3] (rev 21) .......
...... Kernel driver in use: wl

I get intermittent disconnections from the wifi which is set to g-only.
Other wifi router settings have not been any better.
Changing the wifi installation from the default of Ubuntu 14.04 have not improved things. I tried the firmware-b43-installer with similar results as above.

My kernel is:
3.13.0-24 generic #46-Ubuntu SMP 

Thanks,
Phil
