Hi all,

my Mageia 2 Wireless LAN (Wifi) Connection keeps getting disconnected. I tried 
running this script as root:

<<<<
#!/bin/bash
IP="10.0.0.138"
# IP="192.168.1.1"
while true ; do
        if ! ping -c 4 "$IP" ; then
                service network restart
                # /etc/init.d/networkmanager restart
                sleep 10
        fi 
        sleep 5
done
>>>>

It helps a lot, but sometimes one of the programs gets wedged as well,
and I need to run "pkill -9 ifplugd" as well. Is there any way to tell
NetworkManager, netapplet, or whatever the flavour of the day is to
start the connection again promptly after a disconnect?

My laptop's specs are:

<<<<
I also have an Acer Aspire 5738DZG laptop with the following specs:

    Intel Pentium(R) Dual-Core CPU T4300 @ 2.10GHz. (x86-64).
    ATI Mobility Radeon™ HD 4570 (r700)
    15.6" 3D HD LCD Screen.
    3 GB Memory
    320 GB Hard Disk Drive.
    “DVD Super Multi DL drive”
    Acer Nplify™ 802.11b/g/n.

I'd rather not have to baby sit it all the time.
