So one working method to decrease disconnects seemed to be to increase the timeout for link losses. Taken from the bug report, changed src/nm-device-802-11-wireless.c, line 2318 from self->priv->link_timeout = g_timeout_source_new (8000); to self->priv->link_timeout = g_timeout_source_new (

Seems this is quite a common problem. I don't know if it helps at all, but there are a couple of user submitted patches in the Ubuntu bug system aimed at sorting it out. The one at the bottom of this thread allows a user configure the reconnection timeout: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sourc

So do you guys think it's just the weak signal strength and interference that is causing the disconnections? If so, what should I do about it. Would a different router help (mine's a westell versalink). I have the same problem only on all three computers running linux and connecting to my wireless
