Since I updated to kernel-2.6.31.6-162.fc12.i686 on my EeePC 1000 netbook, Wifi has become so unreliable as to be virtually unusable. Lost connections, dropped frames even when pinging the local AP, endless browswer waits while "Resolving host ...". The same AP supports 1 iMac, a Mac Mini, 3 laptops and about 6 iPhones, all with no problems, but I reset it anyway just in case, to no effect. I've spent a couple of days fraking around with NM before deciding to try rolling back to kernel-2.6.31.6-145.fc12.i686, which immediately solved all the problems. The chipset is an AR928x. Had anyone else seen this? I'll BZ if necessary.
Is the kernel the only thing that changed? Try booting an older one and see if the problem goes away. If it does, then yes, bugzilla it immediately. If an updated kernel breaks something as basic as networking, that makes it "necessary". :-) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer ricks@xxxxxxxx - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 22643734 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - We are born naked, wet and hungry.
