yet another problem. Randomly, my wifi card drops its connection. It seems
to forget its setting but everything which can be found in the logs is
shown below. It needs ifdown wlan0; ifup wlan0 to recover.
This seems to be related to the link quality because this occurs more
often when the signal is poor. However it's annoying having to restart the
network whenever the signal strength dropped just for a second.

Does anybody know about such a behaviour?

More detail is necessary to see what is going on. /var/log/syslog the
next time the connection is dropped should provide it.

It happens. Knowing what you have used to set up wifi might be helpful.
