Maybe there is an update that will provide the more recent version before too long? Though it is not clear if that would fix the underlying problem.Įdit2: For reference I have a laptop with N-7260 Intel wireless that gets transfer speeds of around 15MByte/s (120Mbps) whereas the AC-8260 at the same spot connected to the same AP is getting around 3MByte/s (24Mbps) with intermittent connection or around 1MByte/s (8Mbps) when 11N is disabled but less intermittent.įeb 20 21:12:25 home2 kernel: iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: Queue 2 stuck for 10000 ms.įeb 20 21:12:25 home2 kernel: iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: Current SW read_ptr 40 write_ptr 104įeb 20 21:12:25 home2 kernel: iwl data: 00000000: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00. I have seen a report from another distribution earlier in the year that some firmware versions are buggy but I could not find any current information on the status of support for this wireless chip.Ĭan anyone offer any workarounds to get an improved and consistent wifi connection with AC-8260?Įdit: The version 25 for the firmware is available at … 05511.html but isn't yet in the firmware files.

And after rebooting the wireless at least is not stopping for periods but it is not giving the speed I would hope for (of course disabling wireless-N will slow down the wireless speed) but I am still not getting good speeds.
