Seemed to connect fine okay first time - but then I could not ping the
router. I re-connected using n-m and now everything seem to be working.

I do get about a billion:

iwlwifi: TODO: Look into long/short preamble change handling.
iwlwifi: TODO: Look into long/short preamble change handling.
iwlwifi: TODO: Look into long/short preamble change handling.
iwlwifi: TODO: Look into long/short preamble change handling.
iwlwifi: TODO: Look into long/short preamble change handling.
iwlwifi: TODO: Look into long/short preamble change handling.

in the logs - maybe one to suppress (or at leas rate-limit) in future
versions of the patch.

So thanks guys, appreciated.

Richard.
