I have been testing mainline kernels with no improvements so far (tested up to 3.8.0rc5). This bug absolutely has to do with multiple users on the wifi network, which I think is why it crops up so much more often on public networks (like airports, hotels etc). On my home network my spouse was traveling for a month and my machine was the sole wifi client on the network... I didn't have a single issue the whole time. When the two other machines joined the network and started passing traffic again I started getting tx fifo queue messages and had an inoperative connection within 24 hours.
I will try the latest 3.8.0rc7 since I see there are quite a few iwlwifi related merges in rc6 and rc7. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1039205 Title: 8086:4238 iwlwifi lost connections and poor performance with mixed networks To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1039205/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
