I am the owner of an Lenovo x121e (Type 3051-5QG). The build-in rtl8188ce Wifi shows the same problems since I have changed the OS from 32Bit to 64Bit (currently Ubuntu 12.10 64Bit).
But today I found a hint, that might fix the problem easily. Look at
http://www.hitxp.com/articles/softwa...natty-narwhal/
Type the following in the command line
gksudo gedit /etc/nsswitch.conf
This will open the nsswitch.conf file in the text editor. Then simply change the following line
hosts: files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns mdns4
to the below line and save the file.
hosts: files dns
That is it. Just reset your internet connection or probably restart your system
This change disables Multicast DNS and for me it looks like the Wifi runs stable. I hope you can agree and you don't need Multicast DNS either.
2012-11-23: The WLAN Connection is still unstable if the signal gets weak. So I followed the other hint in the forums. Download the original driver-software from realtek and compile it for your own machine. I found the driver at
http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/...Downloads=true
I took the version 0007.0809.2012 (2012-10-23), unpack and compiled it with
make
sudo make install
The wlan reacts different and up to now the connection is stable even with an weak signal.
