Comment 118 for bug 352228

I've just experienced this bug for what I believe is the first time. The syslog from the first entry that shows a problem is included below. I have the cheaper and nastier Intel 5100 card and had previously fixed most of my wifi problems by disabling ipv6 at boot (see my response to bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/debian/+bug/548992 ). Unfortunately this bug seems to occur when I make a Skype call for any length of time - not high bandwidth (5kbps), just extended constant activity.

To get stuff started again, I right click on the Network Manager icon, disable networking, then re-enable.

My details:
