I kind of get the same problem, my internet just randomly drops. Then after a couple minutes it automatically reconnects. The status never shows that it's disconnected, it always looks connected, but none of my internet services work. (browser, msn) I think it has something to do with my own router and ubuntu, because this doesn't happen at my school, and other wireless connections in my house have no problem. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. My router is a D-Link DIR-625, and I'm running Ubuntu 9.04.
