Hello,
I've downloaded today the 3.11-rc3 kernel and I confirm that I still can
connect via wireless...

#201307290035 SMP Mon Jul 29 04:36:40 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Since the issue was fixed, would you please close the ticket? Thank you.
------------------------------------------
Step-by-step guide:
1.Open the following link http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/
2.Scroll the page 'till the last position which was in my case
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.11-rc3-saucy/
3.Download ALL deb files which are appropriate for your system architecture
(32bit or 64bit), then put them in same folder for easy process.
4.Install the downloaded packages
sudo dpkg -i *.deb from the directory where you have downloaded the files
5. reboot
------------------------------------------
If the new kernel has successfully loaded, to remove the installed kernels
which you don't need
1.You can find them with:
dpkg -l | grep ^i | grep linux-[hi]
2.remove or purge them with dpkg or apt-get:
sudo apt-get remove KERNEL_PACKAGES_TO_REMOVE
for example
sudo apt-get purge linux-image-3.10.0-031000-generic
sudo apt-get purge linux-headers-3.10.0-031000
3.Then update grub:
sudo update-grub
If grub is not installed on the MBR of your first drive you can replace "sdX"
with the apropriate disk
sudo grub-install /dev/sdX
------------------------------------------
If you really need to cleanup the unneeded packages you can try:
dpkg -l 'linux-*' | sed '/^ii/!d;/'"$(uname -r | sed
"s/\(.*\)-\([^0-9]\+\)/\1/")"'/d;s/^[^ ]* [^ ]* \([^ ]*\).*/\1/;/[0-9]/!d' |
xargs sudo apt-get -y purge
