Although my wireless connection is working (somehow), I often find that update manager will kill that connection to the extent that I need to reboot my router! I can't just reboot the laptop, it actually kills my router somehow. Jeez! Yet, when I use a wired connection to my router, everything is just fine.
BTW, I have no idea how I got it working on my laptop, but somehow it just started working. I had a similar experience when I was first trying to configure my laptop. I was trying to set parameters in the /etc/networking config files (or something like that), but I eventually gave up on that old way of doing it and left it all to network manager (which was overwriting my config changes anyhow). Of all the things that was most annoying, this network problem was and still is right on the top of my list.
