Description Stuart Morgan 2015-07-17 09:21:26 CEST
Description of problem:

Cannot connect to 2.4Ghz wifi network if bluetooth is enabled with Intel iwlwifi driver. This is a known bug which has been fixed in upstream kernels.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-desktop-3.19.8-3.mga5

How reproducible:

On a machine with an intel wifi/bluetooth combo device, enabled bluetooth. The wifi either won't connect via 2.4Ghz or will connect and later drop and refuse to reconnect.

does 4.1.7 in testing work better ?

Depends on: (none) => 16655

Comment 2 Marja Van Waes 2016-08-26 11:42:46 CEST
Mass-reassigning all bugs with "kernel" in the Source RPM field that are assigned to tmb, to the kernel packagers group, because tmb is currently MIA.

2½ years later, no reply.

Besides, Mageia 5 has officially reached its End of Life on December 31st, 2017 https://blog.mageia.org/en/2017/11/07/mageia-5-eol-postponed/
It only continued to get important security updates since then, but non-security bugs have no chance of still getting fixed.

Closing as OLD.
