@ Jason Gerard DeRose

Thanks for your tip, but I'm a little confused. I ran grep before I
downloaded/extracted anything as you recommended above, and I got:

jason@JSXPS:~$ dmesg | grep iwlwifi
[    4.927130] iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: irq 60 for MSI/MSI-X

[ 1720.447348] iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: L1 Enabled; Disabling L0S

Does the line "[    5.010242] iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: loaded firmware
version 22.24.8.0 op_mode iwlmvm" not indicate that I am on the newer
firmware?

I came back here after I started having issues here at home. I must have
disconnected from my home router six times this evening while I'm
sitting across the room from it. I had proposed enabled so I could pull
down Unity 7.2.2 for an unrelated bug test, so that line with the 8
entry makes me wonder if I got the update without realizing it. What
concerns me is if I *did* get the update, then this clearly is not
fixed... since, after all, if it were fixed I wouldn't have lost
connection so many times tonight (I tested other laptops and had no
issue. In one instance, my laptop disconnected while others were all
connected and actively pulling large ISO files wirelessly from my file
server). Sadly, I even just now lost wireless again as I was typing
this...

Before I begin tinkering with switching this or that I wanted to get
some confirmation here by the folks who clearly know more so I can be
accurate with what I'm doing. Thanks!
