The receiver icon shows that its strength is varying, and when it is strong I can receive well. When the icon shows low strength, I can't receive well and I can't download at good speed and often lose the internet completely. To regain connection to the wireless network, I have to use #rcnetwork restart, or more often I have to reboot the laptop. I can only achieve connection to my wlan only using networkmanager on 13.1. If I try to use ifup, I can't connect to the internet with 13.1. I can boot opensuse 12.3 on this same laptop, and from the same location the receiver always shows good strength and receives well. I am able to stay connected without fail to the internet, and can download with good speed without fail. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Connect to the internet using any wlan network 2. After 5 to 10 minutes, the wlan connection will weaken 3. At random, the reception strength will improve Actual Results: As described above. Expected Results: I should be able to connect to the internet via a wlan network with good reception strength and be able to download at good speed. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
