[Bug 1372033] Re: [Lenovo ThinkPad T540p] Wifi disconnecting every 2 minutes with Intel Wireless 7260AC

 

Hi Christopher and Seth,

Many thanks for your quick reply.
Yesterday, I've made an update to the latest Bios version.
Here is the result of the command : sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
GMET66WW (2.14 )
07/01/2014

After updating the bios, my wifi connection was even worst, disconnecting every time.
It seems to be a random behavior, but I noticed that disconnection appear to increase when the wifi connection is weak

Today, I didn't experience any wifi disconnected but I'm near to the
router. I've noticed the new kernel version and run an upgrade.

I'll keep you informed about the reliability  of the wireless connection
Thanks
