First stab: It seems with 217, the card is waiting for getting its
firmware loaded:
+E: FIRMWARE=iwlwifi-6000-5.ucode
+E: SUBSYSTEM=firmware
+E: TIMEOUT=60
and dmesg shows:
[ 6.586593] iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: Direct firmware load failed with error -2
[ 6.586598] iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: Falling back to user helper
which seems to correlate with this in the 217 changelog:
* Userspace firmware loading support has been removed and
the minimum supported kernel version is thus bumped to 3.7.
so it seems we found a case where the in-kernel firmware loading does
not work.
I have iwlwifi as well:
03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Advanced-N 6205
[Taylor Peak] (rev 34)
and my dmesg says
[ 2.898239] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: loaded firmware version 18.168.6.1
op_mode iwldvm
** Summary changed:
