Hey folks,

you may ask your ISP about the right mtu-value and type that particular number into the network-manager-settings, NOT "automatically". If this doesnt work you may try "Wicd" as an alternative networking tool. Dont forget to totally uninstall the GNOME-NM (taking it out of "autostart" can be but is most of the time not enough):

sudo apt-get install --reinstall wicd
sudo apt-get remove --purge network-manager network-manager-gnome

(for KNetworkmanager the other packages, respectively).

The Gnome-NM scans very rude and sharp your available networks, this may cause the disconnections.
