Wireless stopped working after latest kernel update. It connects and works fine using wired/ It connects and works fine with wireless until I use it for more than a host check and a ping check. Shortly after trying to use the connection (heavy load from chrome restoring a lot of saved tabs) - it stops = NM thinks its ok - ifconfig wlan0 shows it has an ip - iwconfig looks normal. However I cannot ping the default route any longer. /var/log/messages shows nothing iwlagn related - no oops etc wpa_supplicant remains quiet. rebooting produces same result with kernel is 2.6.32.10-90 (x86_64). rmmod iwlagn; modprobe iwlagn ===> does not revive it. Booting back to older kernel-2.6.9-70 works fine - so problem is only in the newer kernel. I did not see this using same computer earlier on a 802.11g network - so it seesm its only with N.

For your bug report to be useful to the kernel developers, you need to include, after booting the kernel in question:
1) The output of 'lspci -v' 2) The output of 'lsmod' 3) The output of 'dmesg'In the meantime you can go back to the older kernel. This kind of stuff happens occasionally, and that's why you can easily roll back to an earlier kernel. I've lost count how many times, out of the blue, one of my machines couldn't run with a new kernel, so I got stuck with an older one, for a while, until it got fixed. Right now one of my laptops is occasionally crashing the 2.6.32.9 kernel series, so it's running the previous one. I'll try the new 2.6.32.10 kernel this weekend to see if it fixes it.
