** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Intrepid)
Status: In Progress => Fix Committed
** Description changed:
My rt73 based DLink DWA-110 USB stick had no problem under Hardy
2.6.24-19, so this seems to be a regression.
The connection initially works fine. However, under load the connection
locks up - the system tray icon shows signal but there is no network
traffic going in or out. Running sudo
/etc/dbus-1/event.d/25NetworkManager restart restarts network manager
but the connection will no longer connect to the network. Rebooting the
machine gets me connected again.
This is easily reproducible - I just need to fire up a Bittorrent client
for a few minutes.

+ Fix Description: switches to former atomic operations
