I have an Intel Centrino Wireless-N 2200 PCIe wireless network adapter and it has this power saving feature which in 802.11n mode the card will run at 1mbps and stops transmitting/receiving data.

I need 802.11n support and the workaround I tried (http://syntaxionist.rogerhub.com/intel- … round.html) does not exist in CB Statler 64-bit BPO.

The site says in the file /usr/lib/pm-utils/power.d/wireless, Edit line 39 to say iwconfig_batt=”poweroff”.

In CB this file does not exist. Is there a similar file in CB where I can perform this fix?

The card is not natively detected in Debian Squeeze, but is detected in Debian Wheezy, so I had to install firmware-iwlwifi and wireless-tools from Wheezy as instructed in http://wiki.debian.org/iwlwifi#Wheezy

Specs:
OS: CrunchBang Statler 64-bit BPO

Wireless info:

02:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Device 0890 (rev c4)
	Subsystem: Intel Corporation Device 4022
	Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 51
	Memory at feafe000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=8K]
	Capabilities: <access denied>
	Kernel driver in use: iwlwifi
