We're having trouble with dropped wireless connections from a laptop. It connects when laptop is booted, and then stays on for an hour or three or six hours, and then is lost. Then in manually reconnecting, one of two things shows up. Sometimes, Network Manager shows "activating", which is usually that it has connected to the router but has not been able to get a network address. This can usually be fixed by going into the Network Manager, and reentering the password (or one character of it). Other times, if one "scans" in network manager, no networks appear. In this case, "rcnetwork restart" will usually restore the connection. So the problem is not that we cannot connect, but that once we connect it is not reliable, and gets dropped at unpredictable intervals, usually but not always once or twice a day. I'm using knetworkmanager in kde (rather than ifup), but the same behavior has occurred in gnome. If I recall, it has also happened with ifup. Opensuse 11.4, kde 4.6. Any suggestions as to how to troubleshoot this?
