Subject: iwlwifi (Centrino Ultimate-N 6300) broken for kernels > 3.7
Date: Fri, 16 Aug 2013 14:30:44 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130816123043.GA5814@janus> (raw)
Hi,
On 3.7.9 iwlwifi for the Intel Centrino Ultimate-N 6300 works. On
3.8.latest, 3.9.latest and 3.10.latest it doesn't. Symptom: NetworkManager
keeps on asking for a password.

An ath9k card in the same laptop works with kernel 3.10.7.
