Same issue as original poster using same motherboard. Asus P5K-E Wifi. Seems like it happens on the hour when some kind of cron job kicks off. just a guess. I'll check again at 23:24 or so. The connection did come back by itself after about 9 minutes or so.
/USR/SBIN/CRON[24398]: (root) CMD ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly) I copied log info from the system log viewer from when I logged in (21:15) until the network connection went missing (thought didn't show as dropped) at about 22:15. Then at 22:24, the connection reset itself. i put each type into its own file and changed my computer name to "computer-name" and username to "user-name". I know you didn't ask for it before, but hopefully it helps out. Also, I'm using Transmission (the torrent app). Wonder if that has something to do with it. I am using Wicd instead of Network Manager in the hopes that would help, but... no luck. I'd be willing to go back to Network Manager now that I know it didn't make any difference. ** Attachment added: "uname-a.log" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/13953705/uname-a.log -- rtl8187 drops connection https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/182473 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
