Comment 24 for bug 336055

I am seeing this as well.

kernel-2.6.27.9-73.fc9.x86_64
wpa_supplicant-0.6.4-2.fc9.x86_64

iwl3945 as well.

Lately networking is disabled after returning from a suspend. Re-enabling networking seems to work.

In the past I have also seen the system restore to the previous connection (which was 20+ miles away) and continue to think it was connected until I again suspended, then return to the original location and resumed. Upon resume, NM usually had to prompt me for the network password (which was preloaded into the dialogue box) which I had to select CONNECT before it would reconnect me.

Shouldn't NM automatically restore the previous connection if it is still available?

If it helps, I've disabled HW scanning when loading the iwl3945 module as it helps me make a connection more reliably upon the initial system boot-up:

options iwl3945 disable_hw_scan=1
