I refer to my former threads : 132492 and 133714 with the following system :

With 10.04-1LTS Lucid Lynx I have suffered in the past few months of severe Wifi instability, tried to replace "network-manager" by "wicd" with no lasting improvement, tried to add "wifi radar" then removed it. I was running a Linux 2.6.32-26-generic kernel.
I eventually reinstalled 10.04LTS-1 from DVD yesterday, which reloaded the 2.6.32-24 kernel, working nicely then same day the autoupdate process loaded 2.6.32-25, working nicely too.
Today the autoupdate process loaded the 2.6.32-26-generic kernel and the Wifi instability came back : deconnections after a few minutes with difficulty to reconnect.
I removed this 2.6.32-26 by Ubuntu Tweak and rebooted the computer with a Wifi working nicely again, I don't know for how much time ?
My intentions are "not allow the update again to 2.6.32-26" until I get a better understanding of the situation.
