I'm happy to help but I have no idea what you want me to do :-). When
my internet connection dies the next time, what do you want me to
capture for you? What's official firmware? I'm using Fedora 15 with
3.1-rc9 built from sources here. Do you want to see my lspci, .config,
dmesg, something else?

As for the problems, I'm using iPhone 3G internet via WiFi sharing and
connection seems to die few times a day or if I take the phone far
enough from the laptop. I usually turn off the AP for a while and use
NetworkManager on the laptop to disable/enable networking to make it
come back up.

I haven't tested anything but 3.1-rcX kernels on this machine but I
can do git bisect too if it comes to that.

                        Pekka
