Nothing indicates this is a problem in network-manager. Since it's about
an unstable network connection, I'm reassigning this to linux.

** Package changed: network-manager (Ubuntu) => linux (Ubuntu)

Title:
  No Internet Connection on Startup

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Sometimes, once my computer has started up and my desktop environment
  has loaded, I will have unsuccessful internet connection. My wireless
  connection to my router will still show as receiving a signal.
  However, I will enter a URL into my browser (Firefox), and it will be
  'Connecting' for minutes, before eventually failing to load the web
  page.

  I use a USB wireless-G adapter dongle (Linksys WUSB54GC), along with
  the USB extension cable it came with (D-Link).

  Disconnecting and unplugging the adapter for ten seconds then
  replugging it and reconnecting always rectifies the problem. I'm able
  to successfully connect to the world wide web once again, and any web
  page will load up.

  This will additionally happen with Steam and the Ubuntu Software
  Centre, so I know it is not just a Firefox problem.

  Other times the internet works fine on startup.
