After I gave up and shifted to a wired connection, I noticed that I'd get disconnected periodically but then it would reconnect successfully. It seems some drivers manage to reconnect and other drivers don't.
So there may be _two_ bugs: 1) A bug that results in occasional loss of connection. 2) A bug in one or more drivers that disables automatic reconnection.
