Wireless problems after KDE 3.4 upgrade [solved]

[Guest jonesieboy]

I'm running 10.1 on a Fujitsu Lifebook. Since installing the Thac rpms for KDE 3.4 my Internet connection through a wireless card has started to drop intermittently. The wireless connection stays up, but the Internet connection goes down. Clicking on "connect to ethernet" in the network monitor brings it straight back up again.

Can anyone help?

Fixed itself when I ripped out all the thac rpms for KDE and reinstalled from 10.1 official.
