Description Wael Nasreddine 2017-07-21 17:21:05 UTC 
Hello,

I have an Intel 8265 card in my XPS 13 and I experience a lot of dropped packets when I'm connected to a wide Wifi (width is 80). The following debug info were captured on Kernel 4.11.8 patched with Zen. But I have the same problem on latest 4.11.9. This does not happend if I change the width of the wifi down to 40 from 80.
