Hi Steve,
With an upgrade from today and the last kernel I still see this behaviour
with the RT73usb module.

I have seen in the Ubuntu bug list today a new opened bug about this same
problem on Intrepid.

This new bug description is showing interesting messages log (that I could
see while I was using Mandriva 2009 but that I could not find in Ubuntu).

You have asked Leann if I should separate my problem from the existing one
but someone else has already done that !

This new bug is there :

rt73usb intrepid 8.10 beta -- wireless connection periodically lost; must
restart driveI am at disposition for further help or test or question.
