Recently I noticed an update to libmenu or something similar and NetworkManager seemed to work much better. Then I plugged in my Ralink chipset adapter and the problem resurfaced within minutes.
8086:0083 Intel Corporation Centrino Wireless-N 1000 148f:3070 Ralink Technology, Corp. RT2870/RT3070 Wireless Adapter I have both an Alfa and "Chinese" generic adapter with the Ralink chipset. In summation: Works fine all day with internal Intel chipset only. Works for up to couple hours with the Alfa adapter. Always faults within 2 hours with the generic Ralink. Even faster when all three are inserted. Both Ralink adapters are USB -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1011073 Title: NetworkManager submenus unpopulated Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Submenus in Network Manager are sometimes unusable as they are not populated. This happens both with the list of available networks and with the VPN list. When the bug happens, it occurs for *both* the wireless submenu and the VPN menu. I know there are entries for those submenus as I can see them with other network UI mechanisms. The issue is intermittent. Expected: Dropping down the menu then hovering over the submenu trigger-point (example: "More networks") shows the additional expected entries (example: more wifi networks to choose from). Actual: Dropping down the menu and hovering over the submenu trigger displays a submenu but the submenu has nothing in it and is unusable.
