Public bug reported:
I just did a clean install of 10.10 on an ACER Aspire 5515. It had 10.04 up to
that point, with no issues at all. Now, when I unplug the AC, I lose wireless
network connectivity. The Network Connection status shows that it tries to
connect, and it eventually asks for password. I re-enter p/w but it won't
connect. If I plug the power cord back in, it still won't connect until I
restart the system. If I start up in battery mode, it won't connect at all. I
have the broadcom driver installed, same as with 10.04.
I'm really just at user level, but have installed every version since 9.04 on
the same machine with no issues. Any suggestions on how to correct this, as the
laptop goes with me a lot, and I have to be able to use it on battery and still
have wireless connection.
I also have the same issue on an Asus EEE 901 - requires restart to
restore the wireless network connectivity.
Moved this to bug reports even though question answered as should
probably be fixed.
