[Bug 605864] [NEW] [RTL8187SE] The wifi downstream and upstream goes to 0 every couple of seconds

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

The wifi downstream and upstream goes to zero every couple of minutes on my netbook (with Ubuntu 10.04 Netbook). It doesn't disconnect so I don't have to reconnect, after a couple of seconds it returns to normal for the next few minutes.
I notice that using http://www.screenlets.org/index.php/Netmon

Most connections resume after that but some don't, like the ones that live video streaming uses (justin.tv, ustream, etc), they just stop playing when this happens.
I've a notebook (with Ubuntu 10.04 Desktop) connected to the same router and doesn't have this problem. So it isn't the router or the isp.
If I plug the router directly to the netbook using the usb port the connection works perfectly. So the problems is definitely on the wireless implementation of Ubuntu Netbook-Remix for my netbook hardward.

The netbook have:
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS NettBook (Fully updated to 2010-07-15)
sysinfo shows me that the wireless card is a: Realtek Semiconductor CO, Ltd. RTL8187SE Wireless LAN Controller
