I tried uninstalling network manager and connecting manually but it didn't help
at all.
Nothing changed.
My steps:
- I boot the Ubuntu 7.10 live CD
- I go to Applications--> Add/Remove, uncheck Network Manager (i.e. uninstall)
and OK
- After succesful uninstallation, I open a terminal and do the following:

=========================
Note that even before it starts getting "Destination unreachable", quite
a few packets are lost.
The signal strength is about 25%, but under Windows that's more than
enough to get an almost rock-solid connection, so I expect at least the
same under GNU/Linux.
Do you think this is unrelated to the bug being discussed?
Or should I stop Network Manager before uninstalling it??? (If so, how
do I do that?)
