I get just cable at home and wireless at university, everything's fine, except that I still get disconnected from the university wlan about every 30 minutes. net-auto-wireless didn't change a thing in this regard. Here's an excerpt from everything.log, pretty beginning with bootup. The reconnects in there are from manually running '/etc/rc.d/net-auto-wireless restart', the thing that I tried to avoid. I have no idea why these disconnects happen:
I cannot see any reason for the disconnects. If wpa_supplicant doesn't reconnect on its own, I don't understand why restarting it would help. Can you compare 'ifconfig' before and after disconnect, as well as 'rfkill list'?
The 'rfkill list' output is identical, ifconfig is different, but I
don't know how to interpret the output:
