WIFI Problems

We have had problems with the wifi for some time currently. This page is for logging who has what issues to see if there is anything in common. Please include OS, OS Version, wifi hardware chipset (as much info as you can give), and wifi driver version (whatever info you can give).

There seems to be 2 issues:

Intermittant disconnections

Wifi works most of the time but every few hours or so you get disconnected and immediatly reconnected. Before being disconnected boole can't do ipv6 neighbour discover for your address (and can't ping you), ipv4 works fine!
