fine in OpenSuse 11.2, so attribute this to a bug somewhere in 11.3 Milestone 7. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Connect to my WPA2 secured wireless networks. 2.Wait a while until I loose connectivity to systems periodically 3.View /var/log/messages / dmesg to see iwl3945 info msgs Actual Results: Connection drops out for seemingly random periods of time. It re-establishes itself, there is no change from NetworkManager (i.e; the icon doesn't show me being disconnected). Expected Results: I would expect to be successfully connected with no drop-outs to my wireless networks. Stated as Major as it stops me from doing anything useful on a network. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
