Networkmanager: Slow reconnection after resuming

MartinZ · 2011-05-22 18:22:53

Sorry if asked before, I couldn't find the answer anywhere.

After resuming from RAM, Networkmanager applet reports "Wireless is disabled by hardware switch". I have to wait about 40 secs and then it reconnects automatically. The only way I've found to accelerate this is to manually turn wifi off and on again, then it reconnects almost instantly. Restarting networkmanager nor applet fixes it.

In dmesg it says "iwlagn 0000:06:00.0: RF_KILL bit toggled to disable radio" immediately after resuming, and then "iwlagn 0000:06:00.0: RF_KILL bit toggled to enable radio" immediately before reconnecting.

Reconnection used to be much faster, but I really don't remember when or how this problem started. It was about 6 months ago.

I'm running KDE 4.6.3 with network-manager-applet and kernel26-ck with systemd, everything is updated (no testing repo). However, I have to say that the problem started before I switched to -ck and systemd, so I don't think it's related with that. I've also tested both with and without hal running.
My network card is an Intel PRO/Wireless 5300 AGN [Shiloh].

Thanks in advance.
