One basic question: does it happen anywhere else or just that network?

Re: [BLUG] Xfinity, Ubuntu woes
"WPA & WPA2" should be fine. Have you tried to check the system log? I
don't know about Ubuntu. On Red Hat/Fedora, you can check
/var/log/messages to see if you can find any clue there. Also dmesg
might help, too. Good luck.

Re: [BLUG] Xfinity, Ubuntu woes
I'm on "WPA & WPA2 Personal." There's also "WEP 40/128-bit key" and "WEP 128-bit passphrase" and "LEAP" and "Dynamic WEP (802.1x)" and "WPA & WPA2 Enterprise." Any suggestions?

Try changing your wireless encryption. Some chipsets have trouble with
some encryption levels.
