I have a strange problem where my wireless network stops working with some sites, speciffically on of the local debian mirrors and my smtp server after some time of work and won't connect again until a reboot. Wireless is an atheros AR5414 based card in a thinkpad t61. I tried unloading and reloading both the ath5k and e1000e modules (this is a custom kernel 2.6.30.6 by the wau.
Other sites seem to keep on working well. I used to have a problem with the mtu dropping at some point but it doesn't seem to be the issue any more (at least explicitly) I'd be happy for any ideas to investigate or preferably solve the problem. If it helps, the output for ifconfig for the interface shows: wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr ----------------------- inet addr:192.168.1.11 Bcast:255.255.255.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::21f:e2ff:fed6:1c4d/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:29156 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:18597 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:40962535 (39.0 MiB) TX bytes:1689359 (1.6 MiB) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
