Debian Hardware :: Lag On Every 5 Min Or So With Intel 7265 WiFi Card

Sep 13, 2015

I have an intel 7265 AC wireless card. When I try to download something my estimated download time is tripled almost every 5 mins.And when I play an online game from steam (cs:go or dota2) the ping goes to 250-300 ms which generally stays around 80ms. I'm using debian jessie. So far, I've tried turning of the power save mode of the card, changing ISP and router but none of them worked. I have a fairly good internet connection (I'm using it with my other machines without a problem) so I don't think the connection or router is the problem. Below you can find some information about system.

Code: Select all$ lspci | grep Network
03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Wireless 7265 (rev 59)

Code: Select all$ dmesg | grep iwlwifi

[    9.236494] iwlwifi 0000:03:00.0: irq 49 for MSI/MSI-X

Those are the outputs of the commands I know.

Ubuntu Networking :: Intel 5100 WiFi Card - Dell Latitude E6400 - Suddenly WiFi LED On The Computer Stops Blinking

May 4, 2011

I am running (K)Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 64bit on a Dell Latitude E6400, WiFi Card Intel 5100. Never had any problems with networking. Up to about 2 weeks ago. I do realize there have been quite a few posts with this network adaptor, but non really described the problem I have here.

What happens is that suddenly the WiFi LED on the computer stops blinking, the WiFi connection gets disrupted, and the device is not recognized anymore when checking ifconfig. Only cold restarting the machine helps then... it will work for a while (between 1 and 20 minutes) and then crash again.

On Windows 7 the card works perfectly fine. With Ubuntu 11.04 in Live CD mode I have the same effects (connection crashes after a while). Also tried booting an older kernel, no success.

My exact hardware:

I notived the following problems in /var/log/kern.log

Ubuntu Networking :: Intel 2200BG WiFi Card Won't Connect?

Jul 25, 2010

I have an old Toshiba Satellite A30 Notepad. I've installed Ubuntu 10.04 onto it and everything but WiFi works. I've installed wicd and several other network tools but just can't get Ubuntu to let me use the WiFi connection (the option is greyed out).I know the card works because the last OS (Windows XP) used it without any problems. The card is detected, the drivers are installed and the hardware (slider) switch is set to on.I think the issue is related to the Radio Frequency Kill Switch being on but I don't know how to turn it off.The output from various commands are:

OpenSUSE Wireless :: Dell Latitude E6500 Cannot Turn On Intel 5100 Wifi Card?

Nov 9, 2010

I have a Dell Latitude E6500 running Opensuse 11.3. As far as I can tell the module for my wireless card is loaded correctly and it's working:

Code:
sudo lspci | grep -i wifi
0c:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation WiFi Link 5100
Code:
[ 556.642557] iwlagn: Intel(R) Wireless WiFi Link AGN driver for Linux, in-tree:d
[ 556.642560] iwlagn: Copyright(c) 2003-2010 Intel Corporation

[Code].....

The funny thing is that it works fine in a Fedora installation, which has an older kernel and older drivers, on the same laptop. The fact that the indicator light doesn't come in when the physical switch is turned on suggests it's something to do with that switch.

Ubuntu Networking :: Intel WiMAX/WiFi Link 6050 Wireless Card Not Working?

Dec 14, 2010

I'm dual booting windows 7 64 bit and Ubuntu 10.1 64 bit on my Dell Inspiron 11z with an embedded WiMAX/WiFi Link 6050 series wireless card made from Intel. I only use it for wifi, not 3g or wimax. I installed the latest driver from intellinuxwireless.org, iwlwifi-6050-ucode-41.28.5.1, but it still doesn't seem to work. I ran these terminal commands from another thread:

cd Desktop/wlwifi-6050-ucode-9.201.4.1
sudo cp iwlwifi-6050-4.ucode /lib/firmware
sudo chmod 644 /lib/firmware/iwlwifi*

[code]....

After running "sudo rmmod -f iwlagn sudo modprobe iwlagn", I get this read out for my wireless card.

*-network DISABLED
description: Wireless interface
product: WiMAX/WiFi Link 6050 Series
vendor: Intel Corporation

[code]....

In the ubuntu help section it tells me to flip a manual wifi switch to enable it, but pressing my windows wifi button, F2, doesn't appear to do anything while in ubuntu. The only experience I have working with linux is typing some terminal commands on my android phone to root it.

General :: Slackware Internet Connection W/ Intel 6050 Link Wifi/wimax Card

Feb 20, 2011

I'm a Linux newbie. Used to use Ubuntu, but I switched to Slackware because I want to learn how Linux works better.

On my Samsung qx410 laptop, I can't connect to the internet. I went to the System Settings -> Network Settings and all the tabs there, but it wouldn't detect any connection, wireless nor wired.

I noticed that the kernel of Slackware 13.1 is out of date, so I tried compiling a newer one, but I couldn't get that to work.

I tried downloading this file: iwlwifi-6050-ucode-41.28.5.1.tgz but even after reading the readme, I had no clue how to go about installing it or even whether it was the right thing to install in the first place.

How can I get my internet working?

Debian Hardware :: Intel WiFi 7260 Ac - Slow Connection

Jun 27, 2014

I have search the web quite a while about issues with the Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 Wi-Fi/Bluetooth card. It seems plenty of people have trouble (or at least have had trouble) with it. I do have a working connection, device seems recognized etc, but it works only at a very low/annoying speed.I'm running Wheezy backports and I have firmware-iwlwifi ver 0.43 installed (from Debian testing).

Below is some system output
Code: Select all$ uname -v
#1 SMP Debian 3.14.7-1~bpo70+1 (2014-06-21)

$ dmesg | grep iwlwifi

I'm not sure why modinfo iwlwifi only lists firmware iwlwifi-7260-7.ucude while in dmesg you see iwlwifi-7260-9.ucude loads.

Debian Hardware :: Very Slow WiFi Intel Wireless-N 1000

Jun 9, 2015

I've noticed that my wifi connection is significantly slower than my wired connection. Obviously wired is always faster, but when I boot in to windoze or use Mac, the difference between wired and wifi is negligible. I'm running Debian 8 testing on a Lenovo X201 with Intel Corporation Centrino Wireless-N 1000 [Condor Peak] network card.

Debian Hardware :: Intel 3160 - WiFi Dropping Association Regularly

May 12, 2015

I have three Toshiba S55 laptops running debian 8 or ubuntu 14.04 with Intel 3160 internal wifi cards.

In a heavily congested WIFI environment all these machines will regularly lose their associations with an ASUS RT-AC68U 802.11AC AP whether running ubuntu 14.04 or debian 8. The AP is 5 feet away.

I have upgraded the 3160 /lib/firmware to the latest available on the Intel website.

The association will generally be lost within 1 to 10 minutes. The behavior is very repeatable.

I have removed all networking tools except for wicd. However, the same behavior is observed using network manager.

If I plug in an rtl8812au based 802.11ac dongle the connection in identical situations lasts forever.

logfile around the problem time:

Debian Hardware :: Intel AC 7260 WiFi Not Work In Jessie LXDE With Wicd

Feb 5, 2015

My wifi does not work in the actual debian testing jessie lxde amd64 with wicd version (fresh install). What I've done:

0. Fresh testing jessie install (offline and ignored the question for adding iwlwifi)

1. Adding following sources:
deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ jessie main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ jessie main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main contrib non-free

2. apt-get update

3. apt-get install firmware-iwlwifi

4. modprobe -r iwlwifi ; modprobe iwlwifi

So searching the web just brings up the wheezy way solution (backport new kernel and iwlwifi).

But in this case, actual jessie testing kernel is already installed by default and so the actual 43 firmware-iwlwifi

Some information:
Code: Select all# dpkg -l |grep -i iwlwifi
ii  firmware-iwlwifi                      0.43                              all          Binary firmware for Intel Wireless cards

Code: Select all# dmesg | grep wifi
[    7.890216] iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: irq 107 for MSI/MSI-X
[    8.478878] iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: firmware: direct-loading firmware iwlwifi-7260-9.ucode
[    8.479867] iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: loaded firmware version 23.214.9.0 op_mode iwlmvm
[    8.553105] iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: Detected Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless AC 7260, REV=0x144
[    8.553193] iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: L1 Enabled - LTR Enabled

[Code] ....

I must add: lxde Debian uses Wicd, so network-manager is not installed !

Wicd seems to be the problem. After changing to network-manager, everthing is ok.

Next install with the official Jessie release, i will look, why wicd not work out of the box.

Debian Configuration :: Can't Unmute HDA Intel Sound Card?

According to HDA Analyzer, my sound card is muted; however, I can't unmute it through HDA Analyzer or anything else. According to alsamixer, everything is unmuted, though. According to the ALSA documentation, there's no 'model' id for my codec -- Conexant 5069 -- so I don't have an option to put in /etc/modprobe.d/sound.conf. What can I do to unmute the card???

Here's the hardware: cat /proc/asound/cards:

Debian Hardware :: Graphic Card Intel HD4400 Not Recognized

Sep 15, 2014

I'm trying to make things work on my laptop. Almost done, but there is one hardware issue left. I have a Intel HD4400 graphic card. But it seems that it is not recognized. I had an issue loading Gnome3.

Code: Select allGNOME 3 Failed to Load

Unfortunately GNOME 3 failed to start properly and started in the fallback mode.

This most likely means your system (graphics hardware or driver) is not capable of delivering the full GNOME 3 experience

Another thing :
Code: Select all$ grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[    29.117] (EE) FBDEV(0): FBIOPUTCMAP: Invalid argument

Also, if I go in "applications" ->"system tools" -> "Preferences" -> "System settings" and then in "Details, under Graphics I have "Drivers : unknown", "Experience : Fallback".

And as a consequence, I can't use dual-screen. If I plug another sreen, I have an exact copy, not even with a good resolution.

I search on the web for solutions, but I didn't understand much. I don't know what Xorg is, x-window, etc...

Debian :: WiFi Card Isn't Identified By OS

May 28, 2015

I booted Debian in Live mode on a USB to try to see if the internet will work on my Linux machine before I actually install it (there is some tricky internet software where I live that I must overcome, but that will come in another thread).

Currently I have no WiFi whatsoever. When I go into the internet access menu I only get back the fact that there is a wired connection that's possible (theoretically, I should be able to also see networks to which I can connect to, but I don't). Also, it's impossible for me to actually get a wired connection going, unless I can somehow give it through my Windows laptop.

When I did some research, the people seem to say that I need to update the driver after enabling the use of non-free software; I can't do that since I have no connection in the first place.

The OS recognizes that the PCE exists (I am using asus pce-ac68), when I did "lspci" command it told me I have BCM4360 and BCM43225 chips.

I think I found the drivers here "[URL] ......" but I don't think my chip is listed there (there is no BCM4360 or BCM43225 on that list). What to do with those drivers, I mean how to compile them and install them on a Debian machine, and I'm not sure I can even install them on a live boot (but I want to make sure my internet works on the live boot before I actually install the OS).

Debian Hardware :: Ethernet Card Intel I217-LM Not Recognized By Wheezy

Mar 7, 2014

I tried to install the latest stable version of Debian (download yesterday : Debian Wheezy 7.4.0) on my new computer Fujitsu Celsius W530.The version installed is exactly this one (given by the commande "uname -a") :

PCNAME 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.54-2 x86_64 GNU/Linux
=> A Debian Wheezy 64 bit

I have a problem with the Intel ethernet card : I217-LM (the model was verified on the Fujitsu specifications and also on the Windows 8 I use on another partition).During the install procedure, Debian did not find the ethernet card.I continued the install without it and after I tried to make it found.I got a Linux driver in the Intel Web Site but I saw after that Debian loaded yet this driver (e1000e), so I did not install the driver from Intel (I needed to get linux-headers and to compil the files).

So when I force the system to load the driver, it gives no error but the device is still not found when I try to bringup the network interface.URL...

- understand why I see the Device (with "lspci" command) and the module "e1000e" (I tried also the "e1000" one) loaded with "lsmod" command ?
- make the card work to allow my debian for connecting to internet ?

Here some commands which can show you the problem :
Code: Select all~# lsmod | grep e1000
e1000e                120822  0

Debian Hardware :: WiFi Card Not Working

Dec 6, 2014

I have some problems with my WiFi card I'm configuring for Debian Wheezy. I've used it in other computers successfully (It's a USB device), but this box doesn't seem to be able to recognize it or use it properly.

I've identified the card using Code: Select alllsusb with the output Code: Select allBus 001 Device 002: ID 7392:7811 Edimax Technology Co., Ltd EW-7811Un 802.11n Wireless Adapter [Realtek RTL8188CUS]

I've used the Wheezy docs to download the firmware necessary and it apparently is supposed to run fine with this firmware, but nothing is working. There was mention to a GitHub repository of a fixed version of the driver in question, which didn't work either.

Debian Installation :: X Server Crashes On New Install On Intel I855 Graphics Card

Sep 13, 2010

I have just reinstalled testing on a Samsung Q30 and I cant get X to start. I am just left with a blank screen and ctrl+alt+Fn does nothing. I had a previous install of testing that worked fine but it might have been running a previous version of the kernel, or I had installed a bug fix to do with 915resoultion that I can't remember about. Booting off a Slax live cd works fine but I have had similar problems with Knoppix and Ubuntu.

I am running LXDE but I previously tried Gnome and had the same problem. Running xander displays cant open display Running dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg returns nothing, as does Xfree86 -configure There is no /etc/X11/xorg.conf or installed by default, I have tried running startx with a custom xorg.conf and the automatically generated one from -configure. The automatic one did not include any resolutions and was configured for a dual head set up although there was only one monitor connected.

I thought it may be the same problem as this:[url]

But I have tried following the bug fixes on that site and I have had no luck.

Debian Installation :: WiFi Card Not Being Detected In Live CD

I'm was trying to choose between GNOME and KDE for version 8. However both the live DVD's fail to pick up the Wifi card on my system. I am also unable to use certain basic commands such as ifconfig on the live CD. I am completely new to Linux and Debian (of course). Pardon me for the hand holding. This will be my first install of a Linux system.

What steps I can take to ensure that the Wifi card and the network card will be supported - hardware compatibility test maybe? Is there a way to try before installing? This will be a dualboot with Windows 8.1

I tried so many different things (without any success) that it would be hard to resume. But for now, all I have is a new installation (to avoid parasite installations of weird things), and a kernel updated to 3.16. I don't know if it's useful though...

Some information from my system :

Code: Select allbonyhoax@bonybook:~$ sudo ifconfig
[sudo] password for bonyhoax:
eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 14:58:d0:09:72:bd 
          inet adr:130.125.57.144  Bcast:130.125.57.255  Masque:255.255.255.0
          adr inet6: fe80::1658:d0ff:fe09:72bd/64 Scope:Lien
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:27329 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:3491 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0

[Code] .... 

The first element I notice is that I don't have the line with "Kernel driver in use...". Which seems to indicate that there's a problem with the kernel module (is that right?). But I don't know how to fix it...

The other thing that puzzles me with these last two commands is that according to this page, my wifi card is a Broadcom BCM43142. But it's not the result I get with the lspci command.

Anyway, I'm really lost, I don't know what to do, what to check, what to install. I don't want to go by random, testing all the different solutions I see on the web blindely. This is the reason why I ask it here.
