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

[Worcester12345]

Public bug reported:

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
