Before I posted this bug I had rebooted my Dell and with charging cable
plugged in I had wifi working for about 2 hours till it suddenly dropped
again and I got the following loop in my syslog:
http://paste.ubuntu.com/7681759/

I watched the loop for about 5 minutes and because it didn't seem to be
stopping in near future,  I disabled my wifi  and enabled it again, then
the signal was weak again for a couple of minutes until it recovered and
I got my connection back.

Title:
  Wifi drops on Intel Corporation Wireless 7260, on a Dell XPS 9333 when
  unplugged from charging cable.

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I can't use wifi with my home router (Netwjork 150Mbps) while plugged off from charging cable.
  When I am not plugged into the charging cable wifi might work a while but soon the signal will drop into just one bar and network will become unusable. As soon as I plug back the charging cable the signal also comes back and network is usable again.

  I think I do not have this problem with ASUS RT-N53  which I have in
  the office.
