NetworkManager does a scan every 2 minutes. It can lead to latency issues, lost packets or disconnections.
To disable it, you can set the BSSID in your WIFI access point profile (in the network settings). Maybe this will fix your issue. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1420766 Title: USB Wifi drops out every 2 minutes, needs disconnecting / reconnecting to work for a further 2 minutes Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Wifi says it's connected at all times but the internet drops out and nothing connects on WLAN or the internet.
