I did not mention in the original report that my wireless chip is a realtek rtl 8185 and that I use no security on my network . the problem has persisted through natty and into oneric . Sabayon ,suse , puppy and ubuntu prior to the natty kernel do not exhibit this behavior . I have since found that Debian squeeze can be made to exhibit the behavior if the package firmware-realtek is installed and then cured if the package is purged.This package is for cards later than mine (rtl 8185) the driver for mine and earlier has been built into the kernel for a long time . This package does not exist in the Ubuntu repos , so I suspect that begining with the .38 kernel Ubuntu built the contents of the package into the kernel causing a conflict for earlier cards .
