I tested my 8.04 amd64 box with the 2.6.27-2 kernel + RTL8187 USB wlan interace. The kernel I used was taken from Ubuntu 8.10 section in launchpad. Unfortunately the problem still remains. The wlan0 interface went down when I was downloading a torrent. The interface fails when the download speed increases (in my case problems started when speed went over 150 kB/s) and there are many (> 30) active connections.
