> So far the OP hasn't provided any information on what network management > tool is in use, we can only guess. Fair comment. I just assumed that everybody uses Network Manager these days. I travel with my laptop to different WiFi networks, and I never did learn any other form of WiFi setup. For the record, I do get similar drops on other networks. > I wouldn't recommend using ifconfig to enable or disable your second network > card. It is somewhat deprecated. Try using ifup and ifdown. Whilst I know that the transition has been towards using ip* over if*, I get those commands confused all the time. That's the great thing about Linux: you never know whether you're using the right tool for the job.

Keep off the Intel card when you use the USB dongle, maybe one interfere with the other signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
