My WLAN is working on 9.10 (karmic), after the world's messiest upgrade
- my fault - from 9.04. I would say the situation is approximately the
same on 9.10, though I've less exposure.
Some strategies I've stumbled upon made it more stable on 9.04, and may
be informative as to the underlying problem:
- When I have no networks listed, I use the gnome tool to create an
ad-hoc network called "temp". When I unsleep, this network typically is
selected, which is annoying, but less so than no wifi. This also leads
me to believe that userspace software may have something to do with this
rather elusive problem, as the availability of *some* wifi option seems
to greatly increase the chances of, within a few seconds, having some
actually based on signals received by the antenna.
- The above seems most commonly to fail when I change physical
locations, for some reason anytime I walk a few blocks to the cafe or
pub and unsleep, I have no network.
- In almost, if not absolutely every other case, this is solved by one or
both of:
* Shut down the system, remove battery and unplug AC momentarily, restore
and boot.
* Restore defaults in Acer BIOS - at boot, F2, then F9, confirm, F10,
confirm.
