Steve: Thanks for filing the bug. On the surface this looks like most of the other reports I'm seeing with Intel 7260 - disconnections due to the driver reporting loss of beacons from the AP. I've got a test build with a couple of fixes from later kernel versions, so I'd appreciate it if you could go ahead and try it out to see if it helps. You can download the build from:
http://people.canonical.com/~sforshee/lp1349572/linux-3.13.0-32.57+lp1349572v201408111147/ Please let me know your results. Thanks! ** Changed in: linux-firmware (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux-firmware in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1354975 Title: iwlwifi Intel 7260 Wifi disconnects Status in “linux-firmware” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I experience frequent disconnects and auth issues, never more than 30 minutes without a disconnect. Sometimes dozens of disconnects in a few minutes. This happens with the default 7260-8 firmware. Tried replacing the -8 with -9 ucode. Failed to load due to API version. This loaded the -7 driver which seems to be more stable. Tested against 2.4ghz APs (Apple, Netgear, Linksys).
