Hi guys, You need to seriously consider the possibility that your Centrino chip is faulty at the hardware level.
I too had these symptoms: * Wireless would drop and become unusable, usually under 5 minutes * The only way to recover wireless is by rebooting * The points above happen to both Windows and Linux Not wanting to waste any more time, I called Dell support and armwrestled them to replace my wireless chip. Sure enough after the replacement the problem disappears on both Windows and Linux (Kubuntu 13.04). My XPS 13 is a normal non-Linux edition. If you've been given a piece of faulty hardware, you should demand a replacement, regardless of whether you have a XPS 13 Developer edition. Best of luck. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1159145 Title: Centrino Advanced-N 6235 wireless connection on Dell XPS 13 crash with "iwlwifi: fail to flush all tx fifo queues" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1159145/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
