Description zeitlinie 2014-06-18 20:42:54 UTC
I experience frequent and random drops of connection as well as loss of signal strength whenever I enable & use bluetooth with a dual band intel AC 7260 with integrated bluetooth. If I disable bluetooth in the BIOS setup then the connection seems stable.

By frequent I mean that the signal strength indicator of the KDE's network manager oscillates on time scales of order seconds.
Moreover complete disconnections happen on time scales of the order of 1 hour.
After a disconnect, networking has to disabled and re-enabled to regain access to the wireless network.

If this is an improper list to report this, I apologize and I'd very much appreciate a hint where to report this elsewhere. http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi directs users to here.
