I needed to disable/reenable networking about every 5 minutes. I was able to get some connectivity, but obviously, this is a pain in the ass. After working with the awesome support folks at Intel, I think we isolated the problem and solution. The problem likely affects all laptops with the Intel(R) Wireless 7260 chipset. The solution is to use updated firmware from here: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux- firmware.git/plain/iwlwifi-7260-7.ucode?id=824994715e0276e64cdbf2badbe02921a78fb287 Just replace the /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-7260-7.ucode binary with the new one. Below is the last email I got from Luca at ilw at linux.intel.com - if you have questions, they know the technical details to the solution. Thanks again! Mike ------ Hi Mike, My colleague noticed that you are using an older version of the firmware which contains a bug that may be the cause of the problem you're seeing. We have pushed a new firmware (with a fix for this) to the linux-firmware.git repository. You can get it here: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux- firmware.git/plain/iwlwifi-7260-7.ucode?id=824994715e0276e64cdbf2badbe02921a78fb287 Just replace the /lib/firmware/iwlwifi-7260-7.ucode binary with the new one. I checked Ubuntu's packages and it seems that they only updated to the new one in the linux-firmware 1.122 package (for trusty). Ubuntu Saucy (13.10) still has the old version in the linux-firmware 1.116 package. It would be nice if someone would poke Ubuntu to add 1.122 to the saucy-updates or something. I believe Linux Mint is following Ubuntu in this case. I hope this helps! (And thanks to Emmanuel for the help ;) -- Cheers, Luca. --- ApportVersion: 2.12.5-0ubuntu2.2 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC1: michael 2173 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC0: michael 2173 F.... pulseaudio DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.10 EcryptfsInUse: Yes HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=6ca2b9e3-fdd0-434e-b92a-06c69c90ca9b InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-12-25 (36 days ago) InstallationMedia: Linux Mint 16 "petra" - Release amd64 20131126 MachineType: LENOVO 20250 MarkForUpload: True Package: linux (not installed) ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcFB: 0 inteldrmfb ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.11.0-12-generic root=UUID=dccd14b6-5933-476f-b0f0-3175e5cd454a ro quiet splash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.11.0-12.19-generic 3.11.3 RelatedPackageVersions: linux-restricted-modules-3.11.0-12-generic N/A linux-backports-modules-3.11.0-12-generic N/A linux-firmware 1.116 Tags: petra Uname: Linux 3.11.0-12-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo dmi.bios.date: 09/02/2013 dmi.bios.vendor: LENOVO dmi.bios.version: 7FCN35WW dmi.board.asset.tag: No Asset Tag dmi.board.name: Durian 7A1 dmi.board.vendor: LENOVO dmi.board.version: 31900003Std dmi.chassis.asset.tag: No Asset Tag dmi.chassis.type: 10 dmi.chassis.vendor: LENOVO dmi.chassis.version: Lenovo IdeaPad Z710 dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnLENOVO:bvr7FCN35WW:bd09/02/2013:svnLENOVO:pn20250:pvrLenovoZ710:rvnLENOVO:rnDurian7A1:rvr31900003Std:cvnLENOVO:ct10:cvrLenovoIdeaPadZ710: dmi.product.name: 20250 dmi.product.version: Lenovo Z710 dmi.sys.vendor: LENOVO To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1274622/+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
