Hi, I cannot test the upstream kernel: I've had a look at the link you provided and it all sounds too complicated and scary to me. What if I do something wrong and end up with an unbootable system?
However I can confirm a series of steps that reproduce the issue 100% of the time (for me). 1. Connect to a given wifi network N. 2. Move my laptop to a place where the signal strength of that network is insufficient, so it will disconnect 3. Try to reconnect, which will fail, which is OK because the network is not available. At the end the network will not be shown as available any more 4. Go back to the original place where the signal from the network is strong enough and where i had connected without problem. 5. The wifi network N will now be listed as available. Try to connect to it Expected: it should connect succesfully Instead, it fails. Try again and again: it will always fail. Reboot, then try again: it will connect immediately. Is there anything I can do as a workaround in order to "reset" whatever needs to be reset without rebooting the whole system?? thanks m. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/731466 Title: can't connect to wifi network; rebooting fixes the issue -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
