Public bug reported:
This bug is still present in 16.04. When using the iwlegacy driver, the
default behavior is to have the blue LED indicator flash whenever
traffic is going over the wireless. This is annoying, as it is in the
user's face on most laptops.
The workaround is to add something like this to a new file named
/etc/modprobe.d/iwled.conf
options iwlegacy led_mode=1
I suggest that this mode be the default, and require a configuration
change to ENABLE the flashing.
