Thankyou for Cappy for the advice. I have triple checked your instructions and its my displeasure to advise that does not fix it. Also while doing this, I observed that it too far longer for the default gateway to come back from the route command - maybe it was auto adding itself?. Worse, I was not able to resolve the problem by doing my workaround of manually adding the default gw didnt work as it did not get lost from the route table. So now Im back to the unusable situation of having to manually reboot every time I loose the internet :( :(
I tried enabling hardy proposed but like hardy it did not fix it.
