Hi, please do:

echo "options iwlwifi 11n_disable=1" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf
sudo modprobe -rfv iwlwifi
sudo modprobe -v iwlwifi

Then:

gksudo gedit /etc/pm/power.d/wireless

(this will create or edit a configuration file that will override the default powermanagement behavior) and enter the following:

#!/bin/sh

/sbin/iwconfig wlan0 power off

above exit0, then save gedit and close.

Also go into your router settings and change wpa to just wpa2 encryption.
Reboot
Thanks
