Well, yes, this is a known bug with the kubuntu network manager, see https://bugs.launchpad.net... bugs number 396179, 378145, 392593, 348275, etc. There are something like 40 network related bugs open currently, of which most seem to be duplicates AFAICT. So if any of our many unbuntu-ch members have spare time (one hour a week maybe?), bug triaging is a very welcome and easy to do task, no need to be a developer :) FWIW, this is not a KDE bug, but a Kubuntu related one. Using the network-manager from Gnome or using the wicd [1] package instead of the network-manager-kde is an easy workaround. That bug is partly solved in Kubuntu's KDE 4.2.95 aka RC2 (available in the backports-PPA, see also [2]), and should be solved in Karmic Koala. Regards, Myriam.
