I have installed 3.15.0-031500rc7-generic following the instructions above. Leaving a ping running for 300 pings suggests that it does not fix the problem: 6% packet loss, which is how it was with 3.14.?? on a good day and while most pings are things like 2 or 3 ms, there are periodic occurrences of over 2s even 4s: very much the same pattern as another person reported earlier.
I am using an HP Pavilion laptop with Network controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8188EE Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01). I first installed Kubuntu on this laptop in January (I think) using Kubuntu 13.10. That worked flawlessly (the first time I have ever had a Kubuntu/Ubuntu/Suse install go so smoothly!) The upgrade to Kubuntu 14.04 is when I started to notice wifi problems. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1315575 Title: 168c:0024 [HP Pavilion p6706f Desktop PC] Poor wireless connection with current kernel To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1315575/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
