Connectivity drops sometimes after half an hour, sometimes after seconds... :-( Restarting the system doesn't really help (after all: it's not Windows so this is sth. I expected...) I searched the sendbug reports and found a report from earlier this year (February?) which described this issue too, though related to 4.4. The guy who reported the problem found that disabling acpi via 'boot -c' worked for him as a workaround. For me it made no difference... But give it a try - maybe your x200-wireless works fine with acpi disabled. Cheers, STEFAN
