I'd like to perform a reverse bisect to figure out which commit upstream fixes this regression. It would be very helpful to know the last upstream kernel that had this issue and the first kernel that did not.
Can you test the following kernels and report back? v3.13.11.10: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.13.11.10-trusty/ v3.13.11.11: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.13.11.11-trusty/ linux-image-3.13.0-40-generic was based on the upstream 3.13.11.10 kernel, so that upstream kernel should not have the bug. If it doesn't, we can bisect betwee 3.13.11.10 and 3.13.11.11. ** Tags added: performing-bisect -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1398585 Title: [Inter 7260] Very slow and unstable WIFI Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Using an Asus Zenbook UX303L, with the last kernel, wifi is almost unusable.
