This only occurs when the lid is closed for a variable amount of time only when using bit torrent applications, not just Transmission. If the lid is closed and opened up again very quickly, the issue doesn't occur. Leaving the screen up seemingly doesn't cause the WiFi to drop. Downloading anything else using a different protocol doesn't cause the issue, as I downloaded Visual Studio Express last night off the Microsoft website and closed the lid without any issues or WiFi drops. When a drop does occur, when I open the screen again, I will be prompted for the WEP key, and after confirming, WiFi doesn't reconnect until I turn it off using the switch and turn it back on again.
