I had Ubuntu 13.10 with (3.11.0-12.19) and the card worked fine. Upon upgrading to 14.04 the card had extremely low signal strength. If I was close enough to the router to make a connection it also had poor performance and wood get kicked off intermittently. I then installed arch and experienced the same problem on all of the kernel versions mentioned in the kernel version section. Thank you to who ever looks into this. This is my first post in this community. So hi!

Thanks for the report. This device uses the iwlwifi driver, and the issue is likely with that driver, not with the PCI core, so I'm going to reassign the bug accordingly and copy the iwlwifi maintainers.
