Just ran into it using a fresh Debian install on a Lenovo T14. My old laptop used an intel wifi card. Normally that is all I ever use, but figured I'd leave the stock one (Qualcomm 6855 (NFA765)) in and try it out. Worked fine except random lags every minute with a correlated increase in pings times. Fix was to lock Network Manager to a single AP so it won't background scan (something that apparently intel cards are better at doing).
Googling shows this to be an issue going back 15+ years.
- justsomehnguy 4y agoSearch for "intel 7260 drops" says 162k+ results on Google. No matter the drivers (though for me the stock Windows ones worked best), AP, whatever. It just drops the connection once in a while.
