Matt Zimmerman (mdz) wrote : Another iwlwifi dropout issue

I'm seeing symptoms similar to those described in #911059 and #948235. I've tried going back through the past few kernels, and the problem is consistent from 3.2.0-19.30 through 3.2.0-23.36 (which seems to be current). I see no errors in dmesg or other indications of what's going wrong, but It's very easily reproducible, as it happens all the time. I lose connectivity about once every 30 seconds, for about 30 seconds, i.e. it's down 50% of the time.
