There are other questions on this but none have been taken very far in their analysis.

I get disconnects very often - sometimes every 20 mins or so, but sometimes even every few minutes.

The way I have been getting around it is to disconnect from the Wifi connection and reconnect - and then it works fine again until the next disconnect.

I am running 11.04 on an ASUS A52F. Can anyone help me please?
