I have a weird problem with my eeepc 901 running  Ubuntu netbook 10.10 (but
the same problem existed with WINXP and puppy linux 5.2) and my wireless
connection.

Every evening between 4 and 6 I start to get server  reset error messages
when I am on line. Eventually, but not always I totally lose the wireless
connection (I get a cannot find wireless connection errors).  Resetting the
router usually, but not always, will recover the connection.

Sometimes even when I am getting "connection timed out errors" I am being
told that I still have a wireless connection at 100% with a 54Mb/s
connection.

Rebooting the eeepc doesn't help, but even if I have gone an entire evening
without managing to salvage a connection, it is always back working fine the
next morning.

Now, this seems to point to a router error,  but if I sit the eeepc and my
MacBook Pro beside each other, the MacBook works flawlessly while the eeepc
continues to  play up.

Some days I will have had the eeepc on all day, and other days I will switch
it on for the first time around 4pm. This doesn't seem to make any7
difference to the timing, the issue still occurs between 4 and 6.

I find the timing odd, but other than that, its seems to point to the
wireless card in the eeepc having a fault.

Does anyone have any suggestions, it all seems rather weird to me.

Thanks,

Graham
