Kernel driver in use: iwlwifi
I am running Debian Jessie x86_64. I am connecting to my wireless ADSL router
(Technicolor TG789vn v3) with this options (iwconfig output) :
wlan0 IEEE 802.11bgn ESSID:"ManaBOX8A99EB"
Mode:Managed Frequency:2.412 GHz Access Point: 9C:97:26:8A:99:EB
Bit Rate=1 Mb/s Tx-Power=22 dBm
Retry short limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Encryption key:off
Power Management:on
Link Quality=70/70 Signal level=-34 dBm
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:71 Missed beacon:0
The Bit Rate alternate between 1 and 70 Mb/s.
My issue : frequent disconnections (every 20/30mn) with complete network
controller loss. I disable and enable wifi controller with the hotkey, and it
works again (for 20/40mn).
This is an extract of my network manager log (/var/log/daemon.log) of this
issue :

I found similar issues on the Ubuntu Launchpad, the #1349108
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1349108) and #1293569
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/+bug/1293569). So I
apply the "fix", I renamed the iwlwifi-7260-8.ucode to iwlwifi-7260-8.backup in
/lib/firmware.
This "fix" works for me.
Does there is a better solution ?
Thank you.
