This issue was present in 8.04 and 8.10, I kept hoping it would be
resolved.

I have an excellent wifi-n connection until my wireless home phone rings
and then the wifi goes down and the network manager starts showing the
spin cycle. Normally any interruptions to the connection will reconnect,
i.e. I turn the router off etc, but in this case, if the phone rings for
more that a few seconds the wifi stops trying to reconnect apparently.

I can understand it timing out, but what must be a bug is that manually 
clicking in NM on the visible SSID has no affect, it just tells me the network 
is disconnected and appears to make no attempt to reconnect. I then usually try 
pretending it is hidden connection and I try opening it,  this does not work 
either. I have even tried deleting the connection and re entering it but still 
I cannot get wifi back.
I normally just reboot the machine, I will do some tests now and attach the 
results, however this will take a while as I will have to reboot each time to 
post the results!
