Re: packet loss, disconnects and possible bug in iwlwifi

Hello,
It looks the problem on 2.4Ghz is different - I get packet loss
sometimes but there are no disconnects, no wpa_supplicant entries in
syslog at all. Now it runs great and  is connected at 300mbps. I can not
reproduce the packet loss on 2.4Ghz anymore.
Does this help? How to update the regulatory database?
