Rich,
Just out of curiosity, what model wireless card do you have? I've seen
similar issues with the broadcom card in my wife's laptop, but not with my
intel one. It got to the point where I finally just bought an Intel card
for her laptop. Now I'm just waiting for the weekend so I can install it
for her. Experience has taught me that the chipset for 802.11 is absolutely
critical in getting good, stable performance on wifi under Linux.
