been using mine for six months or more, old OS and beta 06 worked fine for connecting via wifi router and using full range of internet and connectivity stuff.

Since loading the final version on the weekend had continuous "network error" messages, dropouts, connections that then refuse to actually receive a webpage. Router is fine, working with laptop.

Anyone else find this? any solutions?

If you have an xtern installed on your device, would you mind telling us what "dmesg" shows when that happens ?

i get this too. the only solution i've found is disconnecting then reconnecting.

I upgraded today and immediately notice the drop in wifi connectivity quality...

Automatic connection to the AP always fails..., I must select it manually from the list (and it's the only one).

Here i the dmesg dump in case anybody needs it:

OK, for anyone who cares,

I solved the problem of the mysterious wireless connection dropping

by changing my wireless broadcasting channel to 1.

I heard either 1, 6, or 11 should work.

I had it on channel 10 before, when it kept dropping,
so, try changing the channels, and see if that helps.

My router is an airlink101, but that probably doesn't matter...
