Strange one this I've been using Ubuntu for ages and decided to do an upgrade to 10.10 which worked fine, but after a drive change I did a fresh install now I have wifi issues, it manifests this way
on mains everything works as it should, no problems resuming etc.
when on mains if I remove the power and switch to battery my computer drops the wifi, it searches as if its going to reconnect but never does and just keeps asking for password.
If I reboot the machine on battery wifi works no problem, if I hibernate or go to sleep when on battery on resume wifi will not connect.
When on mains wifi sleep/resume works flawlessly.
Any clue as to what the issue is I know the hardware is supported as I;'ve been running Ubuntu for 2 years on this machine.
the machine in question is standard netbook hardware an eeePC 1000H
Cheers
