Re: [Trisquel-users] Connection problems with ThinkPenguin Wireless N USB Adapter about 9 month sin

[isaac]

One particular oddity is that, roughly half of the drops, the blue light goes  
out on the wireless adapter but the Trisquel console continues to display  
wifi bars. The other half of the time, the blue light stays on, sometimes  
solid, other times blinking, but the wifi signal is completely dropped in the  
panel and none of the many available connections are visible. In both cases,  
the connection has been lost, and it takes on average five minutes of  
physically removing and reinserting the USB before it connects again.

I realize these are superficial symptoms. Since I'm sure there is a command I  
can run that will produce useful output which better demonstrates what is  
going on under the hood, please let me know and I'll run the command(s) next  
time I'm down and post that output(s) the following time I'm back up.
