Not sure which release you're using, but the -8 firmware should be
present now wherever it can be used, so I'm closing this bug.

Title:
  Missing iwlwifi-7260-8.ucode causes connection problems

Status in linux-firmware package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  My WIFI card (Intel AC7260) looses connectivity every 15-45 minutes.
  The network applet shows that I'm still connected to the WLAN but no
  packets can be send. When I disconnect and reconnect in the applet it
  works again.

  The problem gets fixed by either installing
  /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-7260-8.ucode from
  http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=iwlwifi-7260-ucode-22.24.8.0.tgz
  or disabling 802.11n mode in the driver.
