I've had nothing but trouble with it (and from reading forums, I'm not alone). I file this bug to help fix issues. My findings with recent kernels: laptop has Ubuntu Vivid installed, which comes with the 3.18 kernel and 23.11.10 firmware. With the -10 firmware, often the wifi doesn't even associate with the access point, while all other devices in the house can. When it does connect, the speed is fast for about 1 second (around 10 MB/s), en then drops to 20-60 kbps, or loses connection altogether. With self-compiled 3.19-rc6 (with latest iwlwifi-fixes merged) it's the same. I tried the 23.12.10 firmware, but it is the same. When I switch to the 25.228.9 firmware, it is much better, however, speed still drops every now and then, but much less than with the -10 firmware. Kernel version doesn't seem to matter much, firmware version seems to drive all variability. This problem is for both bands 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. I can provide all debugging info you request. I will provide the minimum logging tonight when I get home. --- ApportVersion: 2.15.1-0ubuntu4 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC1: jos 2160 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC0: jos 2160 F.... pulseaudio CurrentDesktop: MATE DistroRelease: Ubuntu 15.04 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=29ac20b8-1469-4865-b42a-9c1e67ce0d81 InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-01-27 (7 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu MATE 15.04 "Vivid Vervet" - Alpha2 amd64 (20150123) MachineType: Sony Corporation SVP1121D4E Package: linux (not installed) ProcFB: 0 inteldrmfb ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-3.18.0-12-generic.efi.signed root=/dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.18.0-12.13-generic 3.18.4 RelatedPackageVersions: linux-restricted-modules-3.18.0-12-generic N/A linux-backports-modules-3.18.0-12-generic N/A linux-firmware 1.141 Tags: vivid Uname: Linux 3.18.0-12-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin netdev plugdev sambashare sudo _MarkForUpload: True dmi.bios.date: 11/05/2013 dmi.bios.vendor: American Megatrends Inc. dmi.bios.version: R1041V7 dmi.board.asset.tag: N/A dmi.board.name: VAIO dmi.board.vendor: Sony Corporation dmi.board.version: N/A dmi.chassis.asset.tag: N/A dmi.chassis.type: 10 dmi.chassis.vendor: Sony Corporation dmi.chassis.version: N/A dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnAmericanMegatrendsInc.:bvrR1041V7:bd11/05/2013:svnSonyCorporation:pnSVP1121D4E:pvrC60C907J:rvnSonyCorporation:rnVAIO:rvrN/A:cvnSonyCorporation:ct10:cvrN/A: dmi.product.name: SVP1121D4E dmi.product.version: C60C907J dmi.sys.vendor: Sony Corporation To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1417552/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
