Hallo,
I'm trying to use my Intel 2200bg WiFi card to access the internet (via
D-Link DIR-655 gateway) but it is very unreliable.
Usually within 1-3 hours connection dies and I have to restart it (I do
it with /etc/rc.d/netif script). Then it works for some time and dies
again and thus cycle repeats. :-/
Is there something I can do to help someone debug and fix this issue
please ? Thanks!
With regards,
Martin
