The network problem happened to me again today.
Here's your questions and my answers:
What happens when you try to access the network?
- When I try to open a web page, I just get no reply.
Sometimes I get a reply after long time.
Can you ping the router? Other hosts on the lan? Other
hosts on the internet? By name? By IP?
- I can ping the router:
$ ping 192.168.1.1

By speed, do you mean latency or data transfer time?
- I don't know. When I access a web page, it is finished
after long time. Sometimes it just fails.
What are the ping times like (before and after suspend?)
- Pinging seems ok even when internet is inaccessable.
How long does name resolution take?
- Name resolution seems ok.
Do protocols other than HTTP also suffer? What about other
browsers?
- Other browsers such as Epiphany and w3m don't work either.
And also, when this happened, I plugged the wire and tried the wired
network, it failed too.
Thank you very much.
Best Regards,
Forrest

Stupid is as stupid does.
Why not ifdown [primary interface] && ifup [primary interface] ?
it's most likely dropping the routing table, one of my old lappy's used
to do that,.
