[Bug 1269441] [NEW] Connection drops though network manager reports everything as OK

 

Public bug reported:

A few times a day, my connection will drop and the network manager
applet is telling me that there is no problem. However, I can no longer
connect to my wifi router or the outside internet.

In the syslog I see the following call trace:
