Public bug reported:

Hello

Edgy Eft updated from a Dapper Drake, on a brand new Asus S6J.

For some weeks now, I noticed a curious bug with my wifi connection. The
connection runs ok for a few hours, then, suddenly, it just goes away. I
mean, suddenly there is no more active connection, and I can't find no
way to start it again. I must reboot my computer in order to get it
working again.

My wireless card is an "Intel Pro 3945ABG". I just use Gaim, Firefox and
Rhythmbox (radio flux). This morning it was even worse: the connection
flew away after just few minutes of connection. I had to reboot once
again. I have no idea what is going on here. Is it a wifi trouble or
something else?

I found at least one other Ubuntu user that noticed the same trouble on
his computer (http://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?id=74238).

Some hints here:
