Summary: Wireless connection randomly drops
Product: ACPI
Version: 2.5
Kernel Version: 3.3RC6
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Tree: Mainline
Status: NEW
Severity: high
Priority: P1
Component: ACPICA-Core
AssignedTo: acpi_acpica-c...@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
ReportedBy: laur...@knc.nc
Regression: Yes
This an old problem that oneiric had in its early days.
The wifi connection randomly drops. Sometimes it reconnects itself (after
asking for the WPA key again ...), but most of time it is needed to
deactivate/activate wireless networking from Network Manager or, when it
doesn't do the trick, I need to turn off/on wireless networks using the hw
switch.
Tested on 3.2.0 and 3.3 RC6.
The original bug report:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/945379
I think the driver used is ath9k.
I didn't have the issue in oneiric using the latest kernel available from here:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ , which was v3.2-rc4.
