Same issue on an Acer 5515. I've done both upgrade from lucid and complete install. I also tried Stefan's Suggestion (#9) and the "sudo iwconfig eth1 power off" suggestion. Neither one works for me. If I boot up on AC power, wireless networking is fine. If I unplug AC, I lose wireless networking within 10 seconds, and the system asks me for a password multiple times before giving up. If I plug in, it still won't connect until I restart. I have also gone back to lucid and everything worked fine, even when on battery. Somebody help, please. I'd really love to get this worked out. Seems like there'd be some kind of easy fix since it works fine in lucid?????
