Z -- Unfortunately, I can confirm that this particular bug is still affecting Intel adapters. Using 15.1.0.18 drivers with an Intel Ultimate-N 6300, controller is 8.01.05.0008, and ADDBA/MPDU are both enabled. I can still reliably reproduce this issue in house. After transferring a certain amount of data, clients lose the ability to receive traffic, though still associated with the AP.
However, the new drivers have addressed the "hesitation" issue (best way I can describe it) where ping times would jump from 1ms to 300ms+ and transfers would pause momentarily. Things now appear to remain consistently fast until the other bug kicks in.
