[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1697784] Re: RTL wifi module drops connection

2017-06-14 Thread Glen Mehn
Have tested. Problem exists in 4.12-rc5 (today's build).

Problem existed in mainline kernel before 4.10.0-22, but one could build
the rtkwifi-new package agianst it using nonfree drivers as a workaround
- that doesn't build properly against -22.

Hvae rolled back to 4.10.0-21 and it seems to work.

In 4.12-rc5 daily the problem is slightly different - rather than
completely ending the latency grows and grows over a period of time
before the connection dies.

It may be worse under network load - "seems" so but have not rigorously
tested (and does not only occur under load)
