Could be deteriorating hardware. Try a USB wireless dongle and disable
the built-in wireless. See if the exact same issues persist with the new

Yes network manager has improved, but I find now that I am asked for
my encyption password each time I log on (or is it reboot?) whereas on
8.04 it joined up to the wireless on login.
Anyone know how to get back the old behaviour?

Could be a timeout issue with the security or the session???

This is also the experience I'm having with 8.04 - so is not limited to
8.10. Unfortunately this could end up being a show stopper if it gets

You learn something new every day:
D-Bus interface to the ISC DHCP client
dhcdbd provides a D-Bus interface to dhclient, the DHCP client from
ISC, so applications such as NetworkManager can query and control
dhclient. This allows an application-neutral interface for such
operations.
