I have problems with with ndiswrapper on jaunty 64 bit.
Once in couple of days, the Wireless just stops working. Even restart does not resolve the issue.
I have to shutdown the computer and restart it again for the wireless to work again.
I am using drivers as mentioned on the following website
http://sites.google.com/site/subtlegems/netgear-wg311v3-ndis-driver-for-linux-amd64
Ndiswrapper configurations are as below
~$ ndiswrapper -l
wg311v3 : driver installed
device (11AB:1FAA) present
~$ ndiswrapper -v
utils version: '1.9', utils version needed by module: '1.9'

I have also noticed the following message in the dmesg log file

Some questions you ask
* Is this reproducible? If so, what specific steps should we take to recreate this bug?
Yes, but not correlated to a particular event. It just happens once in two days, the WLAN connection is lost.
* Is this a laptop or a desktop?
Desktop
* Does this happen on a clean boot? (booting from scratch, not using resume/suspend)
Restart does not solve the issue. Only shutdown and Switch on resolves the error.
I dont have resume/suspend enabled on my desktop.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to look at all reported bugs in a timely manner.
There have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time you reported the bug and your problem may have been fixed with some of the updates. It would help us a lot if you could test the current Ubuntu development version (10.10). If you can test it, and it is still an issue, we would appreciate if you could upload updated logs by running apport-collect 444715, and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue.
