Bug Description
Binary package hint: network-manager
This happened on both my desktop (wireless rt2500 pci) and my laptop (hostap_cs driver). My desktop is a feisty system updated to current Gutsy, and my Laptop is an install from Tribe 5 with updates. Initially, both worked fine with network-manager, and all was swell. But after one update, of which, I'm *assuming* network-manager was a part of (can't recall), both systems' connectivity pretty much broke. Ther version of network-manager that is culprit on my systems is 0.6.5-0ubuntu15.
On my desktop, I was able to connect for random amounts of time, from 1 second to an hour, then it would just quietly stop working. If I manually brought the interface down and then up, it would usually work again for an undetermined amount of time. My laptop was similar, but was much more difficult to get a connection with. I've attached the output of some commands from my desktop to this bug: https:/
I tried many things, and restarted both computers many times before giving up. This is how I gave up:
$ sudo aptitude remove network-manager network-
$ sudo /etc/init.
Since then, my network has been working fine again. :P
please test the 0.6.5-0ubuntu16 ~ppa3 package from my ppa: ppa.launchpad. net/asac/ ubuntu/ pool/main/ n/network- manager/
