[Bug 1238968] [NEW] Wireless connection drops and cannot be re-established

 

Public bug reported:

This is coming from bug #1000208.

Spontaneously, the wireless connection stops working.  That is, the
applet still shows that it's connected, but no traffic is going through.
On attempting to disconnect and reconnect, connection is not possible.
It continuously fails.  One can only reconnect using the following
workaround, or rebooting.

Workaround:
sudo /sbin/rmmod rtl8192se; sudo killall NetworkManager; sudo modprobe rtl8192se
