"wireless carrier lost" -> complete network shutdown

[Marcelo Cavalcante]

When you say "I'm running Slackware-13.1 (about 2 years old) which came with
KDE-4.4.3.", you mean the OS still the same? Without updates? Still with
kde 4.4.3 and all the rest?

For KDE, wicd is really better than network-manager, in my opinion.

I would suggest you to remove your WPA2 protection, just for a single test
and see if the same problem happens. Also, you could work as usual but
running "tail -f /var/log/messages" to see what's going on when your
interfaces get killed.

If you say you don't remember about having wicd installed, perhaps you have
some kind of cinflict between network manager and wicd, but I'm not sure
about that.

You need to check about this? Do you have network manager installed too?

Could you check the running services? wicd is running? networkmanager is
stoped?
