Comment 104 for bug 185470

Was working in 2.6.24-22/Hardy. Since update to 2.6.24-23, no connection anymore at boot until a "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart"... and after that, connection is hasardous: can last 10mn or hours... Only booting back on -22 gives a reliable wifi, as well as booting on XP partition (=> not an hardware problem).

So I really don't understand why kernel team is kicking this bug out as problems are really phased with kernel updates! These wifi boards (intel, as 4965 seems as well concerned reading forums/newsgroups) are in a huge % of sold laptops... Maybe you have one somewhere to make tests before release :o))
