There's no "perfect" firmware version. -7 works better than -8 for some, and -8 works better than -7 for others. -9 isn't technically supported in 3.13 kernels (the version used for trusty) - we could potentially backport support, but getting enough testing to confirm that it won't cause regressions is difficult. As a result I'm focusing on fixing the bugs people are seeing in -8. It would be helpful if you could use that version when you're collecting the wifi-debug data. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1355441 Title: Wifi dropping To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1355441/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
