Wireless magically died overnight

[Vadim Peretokin]

Left computer on overnight - came back in the morning with no wireless. Tried to connect to my router, which was working, but all it did was ask for the password again after a while. The password did not change, so what it remembered was right. Pressed OK, it tried connecting again, asked for the password, again.

Tried relogging in, same story. Asks for the same password which is right, over and over.

Only a reboot 'fixed it'.

Hi Vadim,

If you could also please test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

Thanks in advance.
