I am running a dual-boot debian (wheezy/sid)/windows 8 on a 3-months-old Toshiba desktop. Sometimes my wireless connection (from Debian) stops working after an hour or so, at other times the connection is not established at all. When running windows, the desired connection with a LAN using the access name "JF Basement" seems to be working consistently.
I think that, during installation, I failed to supply "JF Basement" as the desired network connection, and that debian is temporarily getting and then losing access to some other network. In the same location as the desktop, a laptop running debian 6.0.6 is working consistently. The /etc/networks file on the laptop: default 0.0.0.0 loopback 127.0.0.0 link-local 169.254.0.0 JF Basement 50.129.94.204 The /etc/networks file on the desktop: default 0.0.0.0 loopback 127.0.0.0 link-local 169.254.0.0 Thanks for advice (as simple as possible) on how to fix this. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
