Comment 8 for bug 56894

I'm using Hardy Heron alpha 5 on Toshiba Satellite 1130-S155 with SMC2632w (atmel chip) pcmcia V3 card.

When I try to use update manager the connection with ap is lost. I've noticed that the wireless signal drops to 0% and then the connection is broken.

Sometimes, browsing the web, it has the same behavior but little time after it restores and goes on.

Using iwconfig i got:

lo no wireless extensions.

eth0 no wireless extensions.

eth1 IEEE 802.11-DS ESSID:"SMC"
          Mode:Managed Frequency:2.437 GHz Access Point: 00:04:E2:88:45:D4

          Link Quality:0 Signal level:0 Noise level:0
          Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
          Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:2021

Using sudo lspci | grep Atmel (driver for my card) i got:

I couldn't make it work with gutsy.
