For the client that I have in that thread, the info is the following:

Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6235
iwlwifi with iwlwifi-6000g2b-6 firmware
kernel is 3.11

The other user I'm working with I know the chipset is an Intel Centrino
Advanced-N 6200 with iwlwifi, but I don't know the firmware and kernel
version. I can request that info from the user if you deem it relevant.

I'll let the Intel guys decide if that is necessary. I was mostly interested if
the driver was one that I maintain.

Thanks,
