Have tested. Problem exists in 4.12-rc5 (today's build). Problem existed in mainline kernel before 4.10.0-22, but one could build the rtkwifi-new package agianst it using nonfree drivers as a workaround - that doesn't build properly against -22.
Hvae rolled back to 4.10.0-21 and it seems to work. In 4.12-rc5 daily the problem is slightly different - rather than completely ending the latency grows and grows over a period of time before the connection dies. It may be worse under network load - "seems" so but have not rigorously tested (and does not only occur under load) ** Tags added: kernel-bug-exists-upstream -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1697784 Title: RTL wifi module drops connection To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1697784/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
