[Bug 567961] Re: Wireless disconnects in Lucid

[Dave Boutcher]

Mouxbar motivated me to comment on this bug again.  I have the following
observations:

1) the problem is not solved for me by using the linux-backports-
modules-wireless, but it does become less frequent.

2) I've the two backports (-21 and -22) seem about the same

3) I think this is something power related (i.e. tx-power.)  I say that
because (and don't laugh at this anecdotal evidence) I live right beside
a train line, and in addition to heavy traffice (e.g. youtube) the other
thing that seems to correlate with wireless drops is trains going by.  I
suspect they are using some kind of 2.4GHz wireless gear on the trains
which interfere with wifi.  This was never a problem before 10.04.  I
note that 10.04 includes the following in the relase notes: "Setting
wireless regulatory domain via module option no longer supported".  I
wonder if this is related
