[ubuntu-uk] Restarting WLAN after Suspend - 9.10
I find that if I use Suspend, and the machine is in Suspend for longer than a few minutes, the WLAN stops and I can't restart it without restarting the machine. I presume there's a Command I can issue to restart the WLAN, can some kind person tell me what it is?

Hi, If I single click right-click the network manager, top right. then click the connection I wish to reset/reconnect. Network manager will do so, does this not work after your PC has been suspended? altenatively try # sudo ifconfig eth0 up or # sudo ifconfig eth0 down replacing eth0 with the right adpater. :-) -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/

Depending on your type of Wifi adapter unload and load the module: sudo rmmod iwlagn sudo modprobe iwlagn or sudo rmmod ipw2200 sudo modprobe ipw2200 if you're using an Intel adapter. -Original Message- From: ubuntu-uk-boun...@lists.ubuntu.com [mailto:ubuntu-uk-boun...@lists.ubuntu.com] On Behalf Of Gordon Sent: 21 December 2009 11:27 To: ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com Subject: [ubuntu-uk] Restarting WLAN after Suspend - 9.10 I find that if I use Suspend, and the machine is in Suspend for longer than a few minutes, the WLAN stops and I can't restart it without restarting the machine.

I have the same problem with a Windows XP laptop I have knocking about somewhere. Perhaps it is dodgy wireless drivers?
