[Bug 1373552] [NEW] Can't connect to wireless network

 

Public bug reported:

After having iwlwifi problems of constant disconnections every 30 or so
minutes, I tried going to
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi to install the
latest Intel® Wireless 7260 firmware for my kernel version at
/lib/firmware, having only the -8 or -7 version in that directory,
restarting my computer, and reinstalling the linux-firmware package.

Later on I became unable to reconnect to the wireless network after I
got disconnected.
