Description of problem: Instability of WiFi connection on system using Intel 5300 A/G/N chipset connected to 802.11n access point. Constant errors in /var/log/messages. Found Intel wireless bug report (#2228) against Ubuntu for what appears to be the same. I have appended to that ticket as well. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Dell E6500 Laptop with Intel 5300 AGN chipset. Fedora 14 kernel 2.6.35.6-48.fc14.x86_64 modinfo shows: >filename: /lib/modules/2.6.35.6-48.fc14.x86_64/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwlagn.ko alias: iwl4965 license: GPL author: Copyright(c) 2003-2010 Intel Corporation <ilw.com> version: in-tree:d description: Intel(R) Wireless WiFi Link AGN driver for Linux firmware: iwlwifi-4965-2.ucode firmware: iwlwifi-5150-2.ucode firmware: iwlwifi-5000-2.ucode firmware: iwlwifi-6000g2a-4.ucode firmware: iwlwifi-6050-4.ucode firmware: iwlwifi-6000-4.ucode firmware: iwlwifi-1000-3.ucode srcversion: 60F4E88BF44FCB9589CC3B3 alias: pci:v00008086d00000084sv*sd00001316bc*sc*i* . . .

Re-assigned to the kernel.
There is workaround for that issue: echo "options iwlagn 11n_disable50=1 11n_disable=1" >> /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf Also problem is gone in 2.6.36 kernel, but exact commit which fix that is not know so far.
RE: Workaround: does this disable 802.11n speeds and drop to older speeds? If so, it's equivalent to "don't use WiFi" as a workaround, since that's the whole point of my using this chipset/laptop 8-( (Yeah, I know it means more stability at least). I was hoping the "known uCode" issue mentioned in Intel Wireless BZ 2228 would be the start of the path to a fix. As for the 2.6.36 magic fix, that's interesting ... I don't suppose there is a newer iwlagn driver + micro-code?

Each kernel release include updated driver with a new patches (usually a lot of patches, they fix some things and broke some others).
2.6.37 from rawhide is "better" but still fails eventually (1-2 days vs. 10 mins), with slightly different errors. I saw a patch that just disabled tx aggregation vs. 11n completely (could have been bugzilla.kernel.org) that apparently works around the issue nicely, and you still get 11n-speed downloads that way, that's not in .37 I think. Can't find it now, though. Dupe of #648732 , mind you. Marking as dupe and adding relevant comments from here to that one. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 648732 ***
