** Description changed:

  Ubuntu 12.04 on an Acer Aspire 1810t with an Intel 5100 AGN wifi card
- (that performed flawlessly on Ubuntu 10.04). Wireless works as expected
- at first, and connections can be configured with Network Manager without
- any problem, including a WPA2-Personal home network, but after some time
- (usually a number of hours, almost always after a suspend-to-ram or
- hibernate) the wireless connection drops and is unable to reconnect.
- After reboot, the wireless works at first, then the process repeats
- itself.

  What I've Tried so far
  -----
  
  * cannot connect to Open APs or WPA2 APs - when the wifi stops working, I 
cannot connect to any access points, even Open ones.
  * once the network problems start, plugging in a USB WiFi adapter w/ Atheros 
chipset results in the same problem with both cards. This USB device is known 
to work with Ubuntu "out of the box", suggesting it is not an iwlwifi driver 
problem.
  * disabling "N" mode in iwlifi does not work: "options iwlwifi 11n_disable=1" 
in /etc/modprobe.d/disable11n.conf
  * no option to use ndiswrapper for this wifi card (which is probably a good 
thing!)
  * unloading iwlwifi before suspend does not work: adding 
'SUSPEND_MODULES="$SUSPEND_MODULES iwlwifi"' in /etc/pm/config.d/unload_modules
  * switching to kernel 2.6.39 (with iwlagn driver), 3.3.0, 3.4.0rc5 does not 
work
  * removing the acer_wmi module (sudo rmmod acer_wmi) does not work, and 
disables bluetooth
  * "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" does not work
  * "sudo stop network-manager && sudo start network-manager" does not work
  * "sudo rmmod iwlwifi && sudo modprobe iwlwifi" does not work
  * deleting the connection in Network Manager and recreating it from scratch 
does not work
  * leaving the laptop on without suspending, hibernating or rebooting results 
in the wireless eventually disconnecting and being unable to reconnect.
  
- WORKAROUND: Reloading the ethernet driver fixes all the networking
- problems for both ethernet and wifi:
+ WORKAROUND: Unusually high numbers of packets on the eth0 interface
+ suggest it is the problem. Reloading the ethernet driver fixes all the
+ networking problems for both ethernet and wifi:
  
  $ sudo rmmod atl1c
  $ sudo modprobe atl1c
  
- I've edited /etc/pm/config.d/unload_modules and added
+ Editing /etc/pm/config.d/unload_modules and adding
  
  SUSPEND_MODULES="$SUSPEND_MODULES atl1c"
+ 
+ fixes the problem with eth0 crashing networking after resume.
