Thomas, that's unfortunately unlikely to change the behavior much. What's breaking is the supplicant, before NetworkManager.
I think this is an issue at the kernel level with however the driver might be designed; but I'd like to make sure it's not an issue with wpasupplicant first. Could you please try to see if you get the same behavior on an open network? Without WPA, wpasupplicant doesn't need to be started and maybe the connection remains up in this case. If it does, then that would be likely looking at a wpasupplicant bug. If the connection dies anyway, then we're indeed looking at an issue with the kernel driver in use. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/879173 Title: Wi-Fi connectivity interrupted by CPU high load; once load is reduced NM reconnects -- ath5k To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/879173/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
