I'm trying to set up a wireless internet connection, and I'm having some some weird results. I've already set up ndiswrapper with the appropriate drivers, and I'm using wpa_supplicant for wpa authentication. If I start everything up after a fresh reboot, it works fine (meaning I have connection, and can browse the web). But after a while, pages won't load, and the browser gives me a connection timeout error. If I restart wpa_supplicant and pump, I get the error from pump, "operation failed" and nothing I can think of to do will fix it except rebooting.
Regardless of whether it works, I get this error while wpa_supplicant is running: "ioctl[SIOCSIWSCAN{,EXT}]: Operation not supported"
Also, iwconfig gives me this message: "Warning: Driver for device wlan0 recommend version 18 of Wireless Extension, but has been compiled with version 16, therefore some driver features may not be available..."

But if you could explain to me how to make sure if there's a native driver, then I'm certainly willing to try.
