Hi Endolith, You are right, it is a bug for sure, and changing the channel will help ... I still had some problems after that maybe once or twice a day, now EVERYTHING is solved.
Here is what I did: I upgraded to a new Kernel: 2.6.30.5 you can find this kernel here, just download and double click the file: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ I use WEP now, didnt try going back to WPA ... I never had problems anymore ... Give it a try ... ps. I did not upgrade to 2.6.31 because that kernel does not work for my build in webcam. Cheers, good luck Geert On Thu, Aug 20, 2009 at 4:17 PM, Endolith <endol...@gmail.com> wrote: > This didn't start happening until Jaunty, but alright, I'll try changing > the channel.
