I am curious if anyone who was experiencing this problem with the ipw2200 module has noticed a relationship between CPU temp and driver stability. (For laptops, that is. Probably no effect on desktops.)
I had been intermittently experiencing the problems described in this thread, i.e. wifi connection drops out with repeated "Failed to send SYSTEM_CONFIG: Already sending a command." errors in dmesg, regardless of whether the signal is encrypted. Several days ago I discovered my HP nw8240 notebook was running quite hot, circa 100C CPU temperature peaks, likely due to degraded thermal junction between the chipsets and fansink. I've since turned on aggressive CPU frequency throttling to keep the motherboard from melting down until I can get new thermal paste, but I notice now that the wifi seems more stable. No drop-outs yet. -- ipw2200 driver no longer works with wpa2 network https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/264104 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
