Public bug reported:
I've had problems with the WIFI on this machine in Linux since I bought
it; I'm not entirely sure if they're driver or NetworkManager related.
Under my (relatively) new Xubuntu install, the problem is that my wifi
connection will often drop after a time (I estimate around an hour), and
will then fail to re-establish. Typically this manifests as showing that
the adapter is connected to the network, but not getting any network
access (e.g. in a browser, from ping). I find that I can sometimes fix
this by disabling the wifi adapter entirely, then turning it back on.
Sometimes that doesn't work and I need to restart the machine.
I've had no problems at all with wired networking. Here's my wireless adapter
