Yeah, but some Ap's do that :-) Quote from Laurentiu: "What I found out in the meanwhile, however, is that active traffic will prevent the issue from occurring. This happened with the Fedora Live CD, but pinging the AP is also sufficient. I noticed iwconfig reports that the power saving mode is off." So when traffic is there the issue doesn't happen, so it points to inactivity. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
