I'm having some issue with internet access. I've got a Samsung laptop with a Broadcom wireless card and Ubuntu 12.04 on it. Everything worked fine at the beginning, but recently, probably after some kernel update, I noticed that I don't receive any packets for few seconds. When I tried to look what's wrong I noticed I can't access to router (some cheap TP Link), even ping is failing. Router is ok, because I am able to access it from other devices, and even from my laptop from Windows. But this disconnecting is very annoying. Anyone has the same issue? Where can be the problem?

lspci -vin a terminal and add the last section, which will say Network Controller at the top, to your question. – Aaron Hill Feb 10 '13 at 13:36nmapto scan devices in LAN, it shows them properly, with router exception (because it acts as a gateway?). I'm updating question withlspci -voutput. – kubuscmg Feb 10 '13 at 14:29
