Same symptoms, similar laptop as above too I guess - Hasee W220R.

I'm using Ubuntu 2.6.22-14.52-generic.

To get it back up, do:

rmmod rtl8187
modprobe rtl8187
/etc/init.d/networking restart

...at a terminal. (Actually I have this saved as a shell script now!) Better than restarting the computer...

Anecdotally, just firefox browsing tends to work ok, bittorrent (deluge) fairly reliably kills it within ten to fifteen minutes.

Thanks!
