[Bug 182473] Re: rtl8187 drops connection

I'm not being offered a 2.6.30 kernel - the latest I've got is 2.6.28-12
(jaunty).

I've found that:

1. Manually decreasing the wireless speed does increase the data rate
(maximum 12mbps is not really good enough for what I want to do though)

2. Uploading data to my home server will kill the connection very
quickly - usually within a minute. The Ubuntu ISOs are a good test. This
confirms what others were saying about peer-to-peer software killing the
connection - it's the uploads, not the downloads.

I now have Homeplug so I don't have to live with this, but I'll test
what I can.
