Hi!
This problem appeared after the upgrade at the 2.6.27 kernel, but now is present also with previous version.
When I open pidgin, emesene or amuled the connection dies. If I try to reconnect networkmanager crashes. After a /etc/rc.d/networkmanager start it can't find the wireless connection and also iwlist scan can't. The only way is the reboot..
How is it possible?
Thanks for help

net-profiles gives always:
- Wireless association failed.

It does't appen with deluge!

1) Wireless? or wired? Give some info..
2) Try Wicd - I have just changed from Networkmanager to Wicd and I absolutely love it! It so much better than Networkmanager...

It's a wireless connection. Now also deluge is getting wrong.
I've the 2.6.28 kernel, now, if I open one of that applications the connection dies, but networkmanager is able to reconnect after a kill of the app.
It seems to happen when the connection involves more than 1 or 2 ports! I haven't firewalls installed.
I'll ty wicd..

What card do you use? etc.
... networkmanager never worked for me either, if you need gui, wicd is a better choice imo.

Tryed wicd, same behaviour ov networkmanager.
I've a Netgear WG-111v2 usb card.
Before the 2.6.27 I used the net-profiles daemon for long time without problems, but now it returns this output:
[root@abulafia dvd]# /etc/rc.d/net-profiles start
:: dvd up - Could not set wireless configuration [FAIL]
quest "Set Mode" (8B06) :
SET failed on device wlan0 ; Device or resource busy.
I made some tests: it isn't a port problem but an upload problem instead.. When upload become heavier than simple browsing the connection goes down..
I found this bug:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9143
So, I compiled the lastest driver here: http://linuxwireless.org/ (it's updated everyday). Now the connection is at the full power but the disconnection with heavy upload remains!!
Next step: trying an older kernel..

No improvement of the wituation with a 2.6.26 kernel. So, it isn't a kernel problem because I'm sure it worked good months ago.
Installing networkmanager0.7 from testing (it updates also hal) makes a disaster. Any connections aren't possible with wicd, networkmanager, net-profiles or manual connection from terminal. Dhcp can't obtain an address!!
So, is it an hal problem?
