+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; my Mageia 2 Wireless LAN (Wifi) Connection keeps getting
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; disconnected. I tried running this script as root:
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; &lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; #!/bin/bash
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; IP=&quot;10.0.0.138&quot;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; # IP=&quot;192.168.1.1&quot;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; while true ; do
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; if ! ping -c 4 &quot;$IP&quot; ; then
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; service network restart
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; # /etc/init.d/networkmanager restart
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; sleep 10
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; fi
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; sleep 5
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; done
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; It helps a lot, but sometimes one of the programs gets wedged as
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; well, and I need to run &quot;pkill -9 ifplugd&quot; as well. Is there any
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; way to tell NetworkManager, netapplet, or whatever the flavour of
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; the day is to start the connection again promptly after a
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; disconnect?
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; My laptop's specs are:
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; &lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; I also have an Acer Aspire 5738DZG laptop with the following specs:
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; Intel Pentium(R) Dual-Core CPU T4300 @ 2.10GHz. (x86-64).
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; ATI Mobility Radeon&#8482; HD 4570 (r700)
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; 15.6&quot; 3D HD LCD Screen.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; 3 GB Memory
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; 320 GB Hard Disk Drive.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; &#8220;DVD Super Multi DL drive&#8221;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; Acer Nplify&#8482; 802.11b/g/n.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; I'd rather not have to baby sit it all the time.
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; Regards,
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; Shlomi Fish
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Not sure if it's relevant but I find that if I set &quot;Allow access
+</I>&gt;<i> &gt; point roaming&quot; in network center it solves it for me.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I set it now and am trying it with this option set (after rebooting,
+</I>&gt;<i> which it appears I had to do). Seems OK to fine (even without running
+</I>&gt;<i> my script), but only time and experience can tell.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Thanks!
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Regards,
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Shlomi Fish
+</I>
+Fingers crossed then. I've always found it helped.

+Richard.
