Thanks for the cli info Larry. - BTW -  Nice find on the error and fail
for (rtl8192) but i'm sorry to say that I can't help with that unless
you have instructions or a link to instructions for me to check out.


@ sirius 
Is this card or set of them different from yours?

here is lspci -nnv | grep realtek

It could just be a coincidence since we know the issue is intermittent
anyway, but I have not experienced the problem yet or even had any
"reason" codes today, other than 3 which seems to be normal from
intentional disconnects.

Anyway, here are my two routers:

Uverse Router  (current AP)  -- ( have not yet experienced the problem and i'm running kernel 3.5.0-18-generic #29~precise1-Ubuntu SMP Mon Oct 22 16:32:29 UTC 2012 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux)
http://www.att.com/equipment/accessory-details/?q_sku=sku5480277
Manufacturer	Motorola
Model Number	NVG510
Serial Number	xxxxxxxxx
Software Version 	9.0.6h2d21
LAN port	40:b7:f3:xx:xx:xx


OLD ROUTER: (Experienced the problem and caused me to stick to kernel 3.2.0-23 since a couple updates into the 12.04 release. I've been watching this thread since then.)  (Can not be used to connect to the internet but I could just leave my pc connected to the LAN all day - with kernel 3.5.x-x)

 N150 Wireless ADLS2+ Modem router  (model  DGN1000)
Firmware Version (was updated once, can't remember how long ago it was):
V1.1.00.51_NA
LAN port : E0:91:F5:xx:xx:xx


@ Koen
I see in your post (comment #225) you stated kernel 3.2.0-40ish. I could have sworn that was when I started having problems to but I'm not positive atm.


***
Todays results:
Had the laptop on and connected all day -- but I was gone all day. I checked the dmesg for "reason" and found nothing other than
comm="chromium-browse" reason="seccomp"
which is normal.
I'm using kernel  --  Linux nobody-ThinkPad-Edge-E430 3.5.0-18-generic #29~precise1-Ubuntu SMP Mon Oct 22 16:32:29 UTC 2012 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

Perhaps i'm just unlucky at duplicating the problem and need more time
testing, or i wonder if it might somehow be worth looking into routers?
