This issue is affecting me even when not downloading a torrent, although torrents make it happen within minutes. Every day or so I need to unplug my wireless adapter and plug it back in to get the connection back. It happens on my newish 802.11n USB adapter (Realtek RTL8191S) and on my aging Netgear WG111 802.11g. The two Windows 7 machines on the network do not have this problem and one of them is using the same model 802.11n adapter as the Ubuntu machine.
Every day or two I will get to my computer and find the connection was dropped. Like I said torrents accelerate this but so does transferring files over a Samba share, file sizes vary, but after about 500MB's it drops the connection but sometimes it will allow me to transfer more. Running Kubuntu 10.10 but also happened on 10.04. Everything is up to date. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/374650 Title: Wireless Disconnects When Loaded by Torrent Traffic, Must Reboot To Reconnect -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
