[Vipin <v.rathor@xxxxxxxxx>]

After some days of using Utopic on my L440, I'm able to use wifi even for longer duration (~3 hours). The connection was okay-ish mostly (ping showed ~25% packet loss). Later, it failed to do a 'git push', that's when I switched to wired connection. :)
But I reckon that it has come a long way.. from not detecting the wifi card at all to somewhat 'surf-able' connection. Hoping that it'll be more stable soon. A BIG thanks to everyone who have contributed !!
