I toggled wifi on/off again and it gets enabled/disabled correctly every time but i don't get a stable wifi connection this time. This might be a different issue with the wifi driver as this one is under development too. I've had this behaviour some times (i have used the ideapad about 20 hours this week). regards -- Florian Heyer - heyho@flanto.de
