Hi, I have exactly the same issue. It can vary in degree of frequency. However, the longer the machine is on, then the more chance of wireless stopping, and a reboot is needed to get wireless back up. Issuing: sudo iwlist wlan0 scan Will result in the message "No scan results" No matter how many times sudo ifdown wlan0/sudo ifup wlan0 command combination is issued, the iwlist reports no AP's to associate with. Nothing reported using iwevent either. Also: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart - doesn't fair any better either. Upon which, I am forced to reboot to get wireless netwoking back. I'm currently using 64bit WEP encryption.
