WLAN Intel AC-7260 doesn't work sometimes

Hey,
sometimes when I start my laptop, the wireless network card isn't properly recognized. Usually it has the name (ip link) wlp3s0. But often it is ony listed as wlan0. Everytime when it is recognized as wlan0, I can't connect to any network, but scanning is possible.
Has someone an idea, in which logs I have to look to solve this problem? It is really annoying because it shows up only  irregular.

Hi Arche,
I've just fixed this myself 5min ago after 2 long weeks, I have the intel 7260ac+bt4.0. now what i did might be something you not comfortable with but intel card with two radios have two W disable pins on the mini pcie card these are pin 20 (W_DISABLE1#) for wifi and pin 51 (RESERVED (W_DISABLE2#) for bluetooth, what i've done is cover these pins very carefully with electrical tape, you won't be able to use hardware switches to turn it off but software switches like airplane mode should still work.
Best regards and good luck

  • The Audio playback device HDA Intel (ALC268 Analog) doesn't work.

    Every time I login to KDE through KDM, the notification gives me this message: "The Audio playback device HDA Intel (ALC268 Analog) doesn't work. Falling back to default"
    Everytime I try to play an audio file, the notification gives me the same message.
    But everything else such as system sound, online video work.
    What can I do to make it work?
    thank you for your help

    I have the same problem under the same conditions the original poster described. However, under System Settings -> Multimedia -> Device Preference I don't have default as device listed. The devices I can pick are:
    -Esound (ESD)
    -HDA Intel (STAC92xx Analog)
    -HDA Intel, NVIDIA HDMI (HDMI Audio Output)
    -Jack Audio COnnection Kit.
    I can also pick HDA Intel (NVIDIA HDMI) when I check  'Show advanced devices'
    When I use Esound I have sound for a while, until after a random time it falls back to the underlying device, which makes sound disappear. When I use HDA Intel (STAC92xx Analog), it falls back immediately on logging in and the other choices do never fall back, but when I use them, I have no sound at all. After I loose sound when Esound falls back to another device, sometimes writing sudo /etc/rc.d/alsa restart gives sound back, but mostly I need to relog/restart the X-Server to get sound back.
    Is my issue related to the original poster his problem? And how can I fix it?

  • My safari doesn't work sometimes, but I connect with the internet.

    my safari doesn't work sometimes, but I connect with the internet. Some of the videos I can't see with the Safari browser, but I can see it with other brower. But my friend can see these videos with her safari. And I can not connect with the app store sometimes.

    Before you try to configure the settings on your Router, first thing which you need to do is, Press and hold the reset button for 60 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 60 seconds and re-connect the power cable...
    Connect the Modem to the Linksys Router on the Internet Port and then connect your computer to the Linksys router on the LAN Port 1. On your Computer click on Start - Run - CMD and click Ok... Now in the Command Prompt window type "ipconfig" and hit enter and note down the "IP address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway" , Now again in the Command Prompt window type "ping default gateway IP" and hit enter and check if you are getting any replies, If yes then you can login to the setup page of the configure all the settings on it from scratch.

  • I just downloaded ios 7 and when I'm recording video the camera screen goes black and doesn't record anything. Also in control centre music control doesn't work sometimes. It's been three days.

    I just downloaded ios 7 and when I'm recording video the camera screen goes black and doesn't record anything. Also in control centre music control doesn't work sometimes. It's been three days.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.      
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • IMac 17" Intel CD: display doesn't work

    ciao,
    today when I switched my iMac on the display remained dim, just like if it was off, while everything else worked OK.
    so the display was black like it was off, but then I noticed that if I looked very carefully I could see the login box and I managed to log-in.
    to cut the story short: the iMac is working OK but the screen is so dim it looks like it is off.
    what can I do? Apple support chat told me to try to reboot the iMac pressing Command-Option-P-R, and that this doesn't work it is an HW problem: any other suggestion/reccomendation?
    thank you very much

    Try the F14 & F15 buttons. Those control the brightness of the screen. That should be able to solve that problem. I had that thing before until I messed with the keyboard and "discovered" it.

  • [kde]Gamin doesn't work sometimes.

    Hi all!
    I've read arch wiki and found, that gamin is lighter and better than fam.
    But after installing gamin dolphin do not show actual file system content. If I  move a folder it doesn't show it until manually refreshing (or by F5).  Sometimes it is working, sometimes no.
    I'm using KDE4.6. Do not remember about 4.5.
    Could anyone suggest the solution?

    KDE should not need neither fam nor gamin. It directly uses kernel's inotify to monitor filesystem changes.

  • IMac intel : streaming QT doesn't work

    Hi!
    I'm not able with my imac intel to see QT live streaming events (like Keynotes of Jobs).
    Before, with my iMac G5, the streaming QT worked well...now I've not changed any parameter of modem but the streaming doesn't work more.

    I have the same problem. QuickTime streaming is not working and I am unable to use iChat AV (video chat).
    My iMac Core Duo is behind a router, has a fix IP address and is connected to the router via ethernet cable.
    I tried to switch the QuickTime streaming setting from automatic to port 80 (http) with no success.
    Changing the set up of the router and placing the iMac into the DMZ solves the problem (but creates an other problem, within the DMZ the iMac is exposed to the internet, nothing I like to do).
    Just forwarding port UDP 554 to the iMac doesn't help, the iMac has to be in the DMZ.
    I have the impression that at some point in the initial communication between client and host a bit order error occurs and a wrong port number is used by Mac OS X on Intel.

  • HT1430 The home button doesn't work sometimes.  Am I using the wrong pressure?

    The home button doesn't response sometimes.  Is there any technique?  Am I using the wrong pressure?  Please help

    This may or may not work; no harm trying.
    Calibrate the Home button
    1. Open a pre-installed app, such as Contacts
    2. Press and hold the sleep/wake button until the red slider appears
    3. Immediately release the sleep/wake button; press and hold the Home button.
    4. Hold until the red slider disappears.

  • I have Adobe Elements 13 on a Apple Mac Air. The color switch button doesn't work sometimes

    I have elements 13 on an apple mac but the color switch button sometimes doesn't work.

    It probably can't be turned on at all. I suspect that your liquid damage has finally died a corrosion death on your logic board.
    All you can do at this point is take the machine into your local Apple Store/AASP and have them diagnosis the problems and give you an estimate for repair.

  • To stop a thread doesn't work sometimes

    in my programm i have a thread, wenn i want interrupt the running thread i wrote this code: myThread.stop(), it works indeed, but not everytime. i cannot understand why it doesn't work, can somebody tell me why and how to handle it?
    I thank you in advance.

    if (a_Condition_you_have_set) myThread stop();
    is depricated, though it should still work and if I remember rightly it could cause the thread to keep running (or not stop properly) - so causing memory problems.
    You have to use boolean values eg;-
    public void start() {  // the thread
    conditions;
    run();
    public void run() {
    conditions(false or true);
    public void stop() {
    conditions(false or true);
    - its a standard method, perhaps someone could provide a link, though if you do a search for thread + whatever, you should find it easily enough.

  • TCP Read doesn't work sometimes

    Hi Everyone, I have a problem where my build .exe doesn't work on some computers but works fine on others. it uses a tcp connection to grab data off a custom server program which packages bluetooth data.
    The program build works fine on my development computer as well as another desktop, but on a 3rd computer the code simply doesn't read the data from the server. I've disabled windows firewall but i have no idea what else to try - anyone have this problem before?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    That tells me there was a driver you did not install on the other computer.  LabVIEW 2013 tries to automatically figure out what drivers you need when you configure an installer.  This issue does not sound like it had anything to do with the TCP/IP.
