[Bug 2137756] Re: Please add latest kernel update with WiFi fix to next Ubuntu "Snapshot" release

Hi,

The 26.04 Snapshot 3 manifest shows that it still includes Linux 6.18. A
6.19 update is currently in proposed, which means that you won't have
received it yet through regular upgrades. Regardless, we still need to
confirm that this is a regression in the kernel before moving forward to
the solution, so we know who is affected.

For us to proceed looking for a regression we first need to confirm the
last kernel version that the device worked with, did you try using a
previous kernel version as described above? If not, or if the device
still didn't work, you'll need to install an older kernel. Did the
device ever work on 26.04? Were you previously using a different Ubuntu
series like 25.10 or 24.04 when it last worked?

If this is a regression, to debug the issue we'll need to collect data
about your system, the easiest way to do that is by running `apport-
collect 2137756` which will automatically upload diagnostic files to
this bug.

Title:
Please add latest kernel update with WiFi fix to next Ubuntu
"Snapshot" release

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete

Bug description:
Have successfully installed/updated to 26.04 and ran "Snapshot 2" and
any subsequent updates to that. Initially, all was well I think, but
then the WiFi started flaking out. I am using a Panda Wireless WiFi 6E
AXE3000 model PAU0F USB adapter as seen here
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D972VY9B?

This has never worked at the speed desired. I have iphones and Android
phones and Windows and Apple laptops which all work at closer to 300Mb
speeds, but this one has always been just over 100. Anyhow, after the
most recent updates, it has stopped working completely.

I did some research online, and found these, among others:
https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-6.19-Fix-MediaTek-WiFi
https://www.webpronews.com/linux-kernel-6-19-reverts-code-to-fix-mediatek-mt792x-wifi-issues/

So, it seems there was indeed a fix to the kernel (actually, a back-
out). I am just wondering if a bug needs to be put in to bring this
code into the latest Ubuntu code base, and if so, will that make it
into "Snapshot 3"?

Is there anything else I should or can do, to ensure that this
happens, and is there any way for me to track the progress on this? Is
there any way I can assist in moving this forward or testing anything
to assist you in this?

Thank you
