Intel iwlwifi 5300 instability (now no connection at all!)

It's a known issue. I couldn't find any fix that worked.
My connection is constantly dropping at home (WPA2, ADSL router), although everywhere else is stable.

I tried loading the module with 11n_disable=1, swcrypt=0, bt_coex_active=0, in different combinations and nothing works.
Dmesg doesn't show any error message. Is there another log file?

Is anyone aware of an open bug report, or to which developer should I email/report this?

Thanks

Re: Intel iwlwifi 5300 instability (now no connection at all!)

It went from instability to not having wireless at all... only after a long time of no power supply can I have wireless again (I'm talking about hours).
Happens in all kernel versions from 3.0 (LTS) to 3.9.4

This was the last different error message:

Re: Intel iwlwifi 5300 instability (now no connection at all!)

It's getting worse..  I'm writing this from my phone.. now the connection only status alive for a couple of minutes and then it just dies and never comes back again. The led is off. Dmesg now says failed to start rt ucode: -132... I find it strange that I'm the only one with this problem

EDIT:
I was seeing a lot of ON/OFF Hard activy on rfkill events so I tried disabling the hardware wifi switch and things are working so far... I hope that was it.

Re: Intel iwlwifi 5300 instability (now no connection at all!)

You're not the only one. I have the same problem and stick with linux-3.8.11-1 for now. I actually consider using the lts kernel instead. I couldn't find a solution to this problem so I just downgraded, seemed to be the easiest way out of this, although not the best obviously.

Re: Intel iwlwifi 5300 instability (now no connection at all!)

same problem here.

A workaround that works for me (running crunchbang waldorf/testing) is to power off and remove power cable and battery for a short while. This removes the problem, while switching the wifi chip off and on seems to cause it.
Other than having to take out the battery and wait for a while every time I reboot and not being able to otherwise switch off the wifi chip, everything works as usual. Suspending causes no problems either, for some reason.

Re: Intel iwlwifi 5300 instability (now no connection at all!)

For me the problem disappeared 2 months ago. No idea what kernel version specifically. At the moment I'm running 3.12.0
