Experiencing the following problem: My connection to the internet dies randomly. Usually if I max out my connection speed but also when just plain serving. Happens not within a specific time frame. While the wifi is still connected I cannot ping/connect to internet- servers anymore. Other devices connected to the router do not have this problem, so it seems to be an ubuntu-specific problem. Configuration: Ubuntu Zesty 64bit Linux ubuntu-201604 4.10.0-21-generic Card-2: Intel Wireless 8260 driver: iwlwifi, IF: wlp1s0 Linux-firmware 1.164.1.
