Description:
After I install the Intel Ultimate N 633ANHMW wifi. I experience freezes(without kernel panic).
It seems to behave like reported here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=667459

The log doesn't give any useful information.

Additional info:
* I'm using Kernel 2.6.39.3-1
* config and/or log files etc.
The last few lines in the everything.log before freeze
Jul 12 21:35:34 localhost kernel: [14654.012105] iwlagn 0000:08:00.0: Aggregation not enabled for tid 0 because load = 0
Jul 12 21:35:47 localhost kernel: [14667.194673] iwlagn 0000:08:00.0: Aggregation not enabled for tid 0 because load = 5
Jul 12 21:36:15 localhost kernel: [14695.286836] iwlagn 0000:08:00.0: Aggregation not enabled for tid 0 because load = 2
Jul 12 21:36:44 localhost kernel: [14724.028357] iwlagn 0000:08:00.0: iwlagn_tx_agg_start on ra = ac:a0:16:ba:69:b0 tid = 0


Steps to reproduce:
* start using the wifi for sometime, it could be over a day, or a few hours.
This task depends upon

+1 This is not a packaging issue.

Please tell us you firmware (grep -i firmware /var/log/dmesg.log), because you seem to have problems with 802.11n. Intel cards with current firmware are known to have problems with N-networking (there are a lot of related bugreports all over google -- just paste your error messages there). The only solution I found on a 5100agn was to add "options iwlagn 11n_disable=1" to /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf...

Regarding the freeze, this is most likely machine-dependent and may not be reproducible. Namely, my linux machine works ok, but logfiles are flooded with error like yours. On a windows machine I experience unstable connection.
