It works great for me most of the time. The problems that I seem to have are when I'm on the border of the wireless network boundary. I also have the network monitor applet and that seems to report about double the single strength of the NetworkManger applet thingy. Also being on the boundary of the network everytime the network drops out for a second or two it has to go through the whole process of reconnecting and getting an IP etc which is quite annoying as when I use the wireless without it (just the Network monitor + I suppose the wireless tools) it will just reconnect and continue on as before. It also seems to get a bit confused when it drops and reconnects and seems to loose DNS as well. Should I bugzilla these? Or maybe head to the nm mailing list.
