If it still happens, then I guess it's back to The poison message has not reappeared but this morning there was a sudden break in the connection. Only toggling the wifi via rfkill brought things back to life. dmesg below: [ 30.490064] CPA self-test: [ 30.490262] 4k 4094 large 218 gb 0 x 4312[c0000000-f77fd000] miss 0 [ 30.519860] 4k 189438 large 37 gb 0 x 189475[c0000000-f77fd000] miss 0 [ 30.541985] 4k 189438 large 37 gb 0 x 189475[c0000000-f77fd000] miss 0 [ 30.541991] ok.

happening with older ones) is that periodically (maybe once a day) the packet loss between the computer and the access point will become very high and will stay that way until the computer is rebooted. I do not know if toggling via rfkill will also solve that problem. -- Sitsofe | http://sucs.org/~sits/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
