[Bug 1071942] Re: [iwlwifi] Wifi roams too frequently
Hello, I also have this problem but not with an Intel WiFi card and I confirm that it's better with this patch. @Mathieu: NM devs say that some changes should be made in wpa_supplicant too in order to be less aggressive [1] Fedora devs are using this patch: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/wpa_supplicant.git/tree/rh837402-less-aggressive-roaming.patch [1] The discussion: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/networkmanager- list/2013-October/msg00020.html ** Summary changed: - [iwlwifi] Wifi roams too frequently + Wifi roams too frequently -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1071942 Title: Wifi roams too frequently To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1071942/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1071942] Re: [iwlwifi] Wifi roams too frequently
So there's this commit upstream which might help a lot to avoid roaming too aggressively when there is relatively good signal: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/commit/?h=nm-0-9-8&id=49f8da57ed18b62829919ba4f278b410642828ec I'll go ahead and mark the next upload / package as fixing this bug (since it will include this commit); but let's be extra careful and set back this bug to New or Confirmed if there are still issues. ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre (mathieu-tl) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1071942 Title: [iwlwifi] Wifi roams too frequently To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1071942/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

It literally roams every 5 minutes - and disconnects for 5 seconds while doing that. It's *very* annoying. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1071942 Title: [iwlwifi] Wifi roams too frequently To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1071942/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
