Description Roy 2016-11-24 20:13:49 UTC
Description of problem:
Using kernel 4.8 (as rolled out on Fedora), iwlwifi drops connections after a few minutes, not reconnecting until the next reboot. Rebooting to 4.7 solves all issues.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Intel Corporation Dual Band Wireless-AC 7265
kernel-4.8.8-200.fc24.x86_64

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot 4.8 kernel
2. Connect to network
3. Browse around for a few minutes

Actual results:
A stable connection.

Expected results:
No connection.

Comment 1 Justin M. Forbes 2017-04-11 14:44:48 UTC
*********** MASS BUG UPDATE **************

We apologize for the inconvenience.  There are a large number of bugs to go through and several of them have gone stale.  Due to this, we are doing a mass bug update across all of the Fedora 24 kernel bugs.

Fedora 25 has now been rebased to 4.10.9-100.fc24.  Please test this kernel update (or newer) and let us know if you issue has been resolved or if it is still present with the newer kernel.

If you have moved on to Fedora 26, and are still experiencing this issue, please change the version to Fedora 26.

If you experience different issues, please open a new bug report for those.
