Description Jean-Philippe 2009-04-03 04:34:00 UTC 
Description of problem:

Whenever I suspend by closing the lid of my ASUS F9 laptop which uses the iwl3945 driver to connect 95% of the time, I'll never know if the network will be enabled or not upon resume.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
NetworkManager-0.7.0
Fedora10 kernel 2.6.27.9-159.fc10.x86_64
iwl3945-firmware-15.28.2.8

How reproducible:
Persistent (while erratic, indeed) under x86_64 version of F10 install.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Connect with WiFi
2. Close the lid 
3. Open it and resume: one time out of four the network is disabled.
  
Actual results:
Network is fully disabled, one needs to right-click on the systray, to enable the network that will only then start scanning for wireless accesses.

Expected results:
NetworkManager quietly reconnects upon resume.

Additional info:
The above issue is not related, and behaves independently, from 493784:
NetworkManager: erratic handling of WPA password upon suspend/resume
