Network regularly restarts
by business_kid from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6Q2A5)
I'm running Current on my elderly laptop. The network is simple: Networkmanager using a Qualcomm Atheros wifi card through a router.
Everything (except networkmagager) has worked for years. Networkmanager has worked all year.
In the last week, it's started regularly disconnecting. I'll risk annoying folks by posting the running commentary from dmesg Code:...[ 2612.611187] wlan0: associated

[ 2957.968305] wlan0: deauthenticating from 34:81:c4:e0:4b:88 by local choice (Reason: 3=DEAUTH_LEAVING)...It does that continually. I'm running NetworkManager, one of my pet hates on this box. I can put this back on init scripts very easily, but I felt I should drag myself into the 21st century.
How do I go about tackling this? Nothing has changed - nothing is wrong. I'll boot on a live usb and fsck stuff, sure. But that's unlikely to be the issue. I'll add a postscript to this if there are disk issues.
