I believe this is the most accurate description of the problem:
- it's not merely a NetworkManager bug
- the whole suspend/wake up mechanize is not working properly
- NetworkManager is just the most obvious one people notice right away
On my machine, Acer Aspire AS5536, if I close the lid then open & wake it up, my wired & wireless network will be gone. If I close the lid a second time, the machine won't even go to the suspend stage again.
