Bug Description

Binary package hint: network-manager

It seems to be some issue with this package as regards to the loose of the wireless connection under some scenarios, namely WPA and some Intel chipsets (3945ABG, 4965AGN, etc). There is a lot of information about it in this bug report.

If wicd is installed instead network-manager the wireless connections works fine, so I think this bug may be related with this very package and not the kernel.

Regards, Miguel.

It seems to be a regression bug. Because, it used to work fine in 9.04.

Duplicate of bug #425455 (as stated by the OP).

Please add your (additional) comments comments to that bug instead of opening a new one.
It is also possible to a new affected project to an existing bug (which has been done for network-manager), so opening a new report for this reason is also not required.
