Title:
  Intel WiFi N7260 doesn't work on HP G6

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  I was using Ubuntu 12.04 with a kernek prior to 3.11 to get my new
  Intel N7260 to work I had to backload the driver for it, I used this
  backports-3.11-rc3-1.tar.bz2,   It worked fine until a new kernel was
  released I think it was 3.11 but for sure 3.13 then the card was hard
  locked and no matter what I tried I couldn't get it to work.   I went
  on the Ubuntu forum and several people there tried to help.   I tried
  a lot of commands and up dates  but nothing has worked.   Except for
  backloading an older kernel.   The laptop I am using is an HP G6.
  The strange thing about this is I have another HP laptop an Envy 15T
  with the same Intel N7260 WiFi card and Ubuntu 14.04 and kernel 3.13
  and it works fine.    So I suppose there is something about the 3.11
  and newer that doesn't allow the on/off push button on the G6 to work.
