[Bug 1397032] Re: [Lenovo ThinkPad T540p] Intel Wireless Dual Band 7260AC fails to connect

 

Dear Christopher,
I didn't explain myself correctly. The wifi *still* works with kernel 3.18.1 (always disabling the 11n )

Title:
  [Lenovo ThinkPad T540p] Intel Wireless Dual Band 7260AC fails to
  connect

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have a Lenovo Thinkpad T540p and the wireless connection isn't
  working correctly. It will list the available networks but when trying
  to connect it will keep asking for the password or when it connects
  the connection will last only few seconds and the packet loss on a
  ping will be very high.

  I've followed bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/+bug/1354975 in order to find a solution but without luck. I've tried to turn off power management, install latest kernel ( linux-image-3.17.0-031700-generic ) and related updated firmware according to http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi . Tried also the updated firmware for the older kernel and with the older kernel.
  I've tried also Ubuntu 14.10 with same results. I've tried to move closer to the router but with no change at all.
