Comment 18 for bug 331103

hello,

i've read a lot of forums, but found no solution. My network card randlomly disconnects.

I have intel wireless 5300 card:

When it disconnects...i can just in Network manager click on the same wireless network and it goes on, or just running:

iwlist wlan0 scan

establishes the connection back.

I am streaming DVB-T video over network, i can reproduce bug in every 2-5 mins, when there is big network traffic. When just browsing web pages, it disconnects at about once per hour. No issues in windows or in 8.04.

Here is part of dmesg:

(in theese time the connection was ok).

Nothing in syslog, when connection hangs or when re-established using iwlist wlan0 scan.

can i load wireless module with some parameter to log more verbose?
