Intel 7265 wireless trouble on Unifi WAP

I'm running the latest driver (as of 6/29/15) of the Intel 7265-AC wireless card.  As of this writing, it's 17.16.0.4.  Oddly, the connection to the Unifi access points (Unifi-AC and standard Unifi access points) drops intermittently.  I still have an IP address, but I can't ping anything on the network.

My fix at this point is:
Ad Hoc QoS Mode - WMM Enabled
HT mode - HT Mode
U-APSD support - Disabled

I'm testing this fix (documenting what I've seen here):
