Hi,
I recently bought an Intel Wireless-AC 7260 (Dual band) to replace my
Intel Wireless-N 7260.
The new wireless card connects to 5 GHz nicely and provides good
performance. However, it disconnects every half and hour. It will
automatically reconnects, but the process takes ten seconds or more,
during which all my network connections are lost (route table is
reset, I think).
My old Wireless-N 7260 does not act like this. Is there something I
can do to speed up the re-association process (which happens half an
hour) and prevent connection lost during the process?
Here is a part of the dmesg. You can see it disconnects every half an hour.

Sorry, I forgot to include the kernel information:
I am using Arch Linux with kernel 3.15.4. The firmware information is:

Thanks Emmanuel. I tried this patch but it seems that this patch does not work.
I applied the patch, installed the kernel and rebooted my laptop.
After conencting to the AP and I wait for 25 minutes, then I start to
ping my gateway. At exactly 30 minutes, it re-associates, and the
network connection is lost for about 9 seconds:
64 bytes from 192.168.108.254: icmp_seq=116 ttl=255 time=1.84 ms

You can see there is nine pings which produce "Network is unreachable"
error. That's about nine seconds I suppose.
The dmesg seems the same:
