2016-01-17 Thread arty
I can't reproduce the bug because I don't have that router anymore. So I
mark this report as invalid.

[Bug 1405437] Re: [Dell Precision M4800] iwlwifi regularly loses connection on Intel 7260

2016-01-15 Thread Christopher M. Penalver
arty, as per
http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/Drivers/DriversDetails?driverId=V42DW=3502854647=BIOSA=precision-m4800-workstation=EN=BI
an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (A16).
If you update to this following
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything?

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't
have to create a new bug report.

Once the BIOS is updated, if the problem is still reproducible:
1) Please provide the output of the following terminal command (not perform an 
apport-collect):
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
2) Please make a comment specifically advising on if there was an improvement 
or not.
3) Please mark this report Status Confirmed. If it's not reproducible, please 
mark this as Invalid.

Thank you for your understanding.

Christopher, if I run `make install` after building the kernel, it would
only copy compiled modules to the proper folder? Won't it corrupt
existing kernels or something? I'm not looking forward to reinstalling
the whole system :)

2015-01-10 Thread arty
I have tried linux-firmware 1.138.1 and the bug still happens.

Regarding some other questions:

4d) I confirm: no QoS. It's a very basic router, the most advanced feature is 
port forwarding.
4f) Some kind of firewall is enabled and it's not possible to turn it off.
4g) I have not tried all the channels, I tried 1, 3, 4, 6, 8, 11. Hard to test 
all, usually most are taken by nearby networks.
5) 3 Android 4.x devices (Galaxy S3, S4, Tab 2) and Panasonic SmartTV Viera 
TX-42ASW604W
16) According to Seth linux-firmware 1.138.1 has the latest firmware, I use it 
and still see the bug

Things still to test:

4b) Disable encryption
9) Previous releases
13) NDIS-wrapper

arty, the article intends click-for-click instructions. However, in the
case of 10) upstream removed their click-for-click instructions from
their wiki. Hence, I'll do a quick wording adjustment on the article for
now, and circle back on click-for-click instructions.

Regarding prior release testing, I'm presently satisfied with the Saucy
test.

Reconnection happens after several seconds.

Should I try that in earlier releases?

13) NDIS wrapper seems not to support the drivers for 7260.

First of all, wiki page
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper says the
list of supported drivers is here
http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/ndiswrapper/index.php?title=Main_Page.
The actual list probably should be here
https://sourceforge.net/p/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper/Main_Page/ , but all
the links on this page look dead to me. So I have tried the drivers for
windows 7 32 and 64 bit. 32 didn't install. 64 was installed:

ndiswrapper -l:
netwsw02 : driver installed
device (8086:08B1) present (alternate driver: iwlwifi)

but didn't work:

10) I could not figure out how to try compat-wireless. Could someone
please improve documentation on how to do that? Many other bug reporters
might benefit from that as well.

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LinuxWireless#Compat-
wireless_from_upstream tells to use instructions from page that does not
contain instructions. It also tells to use latest development branch
from a page that only lists stable releases.

I would really appreciate steps like download latest from this list,
run following commands, reboot.

2014-12-29 Thread arty
I cannot adjust WiFi network parameters to see whether this would affect
the reproducibility of the bug. However here are more details about
network's parameters:

4b) WPA2-PSK
4c) No MAC filtering
4d) No QoS AFAIK
4e) I don't think the router exposes the beacon interval value at all
4f) I didn't enable any firewall on the router
4g) The problem has happened on several channels. 

5) At least 4 other WiFi devices do not have problems like this one. 
6) The distance to AP was about 3-4 meters
7) The only obstruction was a wooden shelf with big holes like this one 
http://www.ikea.com/de/de/catalog/products/30275861/
7a) I could not test this
8) I do not see this problem at work with Cisco APs, however we don't get a big 
competition for channels at work. There are a lot of different private APs 
visible in my apartment.
9) I have never tried that with previous releases. I do not have the option to 
try.
10) Since I have already tried the latest 3.19-rc1 kernel, I don't see the 
point to test compat-wireless 
11) Yes, it occurs in 3.19-rc1
13) I will try the ndiswrapper later.
16) I'm using linux-firmware 1.138. I haven't tried the previous version. 
Latest Intel firmware is from 3/25/2014, I assume it's already included in  
linux-firmware 1.138.

[Bug 1405437] Re: [Dell Precision M4800] iwlwifi regularly loses connection on Intel 7260

2014-12-29 Thread Christopher M. Penalver
arty, regarding your answers:
4b) WPA2-PSK - If you remove encryption entirely, or adjust it to 
WPA-PSK/TKIP, WEP does it change anything?
4d) No QoS AFAIK - So, in your router, what options do you have?
4f) I didn't enable any firewall on the router - Does your router have an 
option to disable this?
4g) The problem has happened on several channels. - Which ones specifically? 
Did you try them all?
5) At least 4 other WiFi devices do not have problems like this one. - What 
devices/OSes specifically?
9) I have never tried that with previous releases. I do not have the option to 
try. - One may test prior releases (live environment is fine) via 
http://releases.ubuntu.com/ . Saucy would be helpful as it tests the next 
oldest firmware version for your chipset.
10) Since I have already tried the latest 3.19-rc1 kernel, I don't see the 
point to test compat-wireless - compat-wireless has the commits from 
linux-next in them, which is more advanced than 3.19-rc1 (linux-stable). Could 
you please advise to this?
13) I will try the ndiswrapper later. - Please advise to this as it working 
rules out hardware failure.
16) I'm using linux-firmware 1.138. I haven't tried the previous version. 
Latest Intel firmware is from 3/25/2014, I assume it's already included in 
linux-firmware 1.138. - It's not. I've adjusted the article to better inform 
on this.

[Bug 1405437] Re: [Dell Precision M4800] iwlwifi regularly loses connection on Intel 7260

2014-12-28 Thread arty
I have added following line to my /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf: 
options iwlwifi 11n_disable=1

After reboot and some testing I saw an improvement: drops did not cause
loss of my network, and reconnects happened mostly in the same second.
However at some moments there were just too many drops:

** Description changed:

  About every 10 minutes my WiFi disconnects and a line like this appears in 
syslog:
  Dec 24 11:31:31 work kernel: [ 2721.017478] wlan0: deauthenticated from 
10:c6:1f:2c:49:56 (Reason: 7=CLASS3_FRAME_FROM_NONASSOC_STA)
  
  It is accompanied later by such line:
  Dec 24 11:31:46 work NetworkManager[902]: info (wlan0): device state 
change: activated - failed (reason 'SSID not found') [100 120 53]
  
  The network disappears from the list and only becomes visible after I
  disable and re-enable networking via the network applet.
  
  I don't remember seeing this problem at work where they use Cisco
  routers. I see the problem at home with my Speedport 723V Typ A router
  (a+b+n mode, WPA2). This may be affected by number of other wifi
  networks which are visible here: at least 17 at the moment.

Yes, the firmware is the latest version. I cannot rely on its quality
though, i.e. its web-interface now uses an expired HTTPS certificate.

[Bug 1405437] Re: [Dell Precision M4800] iwlwifi regularly loses connection on Intel 7260

2014-12-24 Thread Christopher M. Penalver
arty, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available from
the very top line at the top of the page (the release names are
irrelevant for testing, and please do not test the daily folder)
following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow
additional upstream developers to examine the issue.

If the test did not allow you to test to the issue (ex. you couldn't boot into 
the OS) please make a comment in your report about this, and continue to test 
the next most recent kernel version until you can test to the issue. Once 
you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version 
specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please 
add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested exactly 
shown as:
kernel-fixed-upstream-3.19-rc1

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil
icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Christopher, your link redirects now to
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds and this page has a lot of
things, so I'm not really certain which kernels to test. Do you mean the
ones from here http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/?C=N;O=D ?
