I have had my Bubba 3 since July 2011, and I find it looses network connection far to often. The only thing to do is to remove the power cable, since it don't bothers to do anything when I push the resetbutton. The version is 2.3.0.2. I've tried to update/upgrade it, but it didn't find anything new. Two things that made me a bit worried is the contents in the syslog today, see below.

Code: Select all

Oct  2 18:57:21 b3 console-kit-daemon[2613]: WARNING: Error waiting for native console 1 activation: Invalid argument
Oct  2 18:57:21 b3 console-kit-daemon[2613]: WARNING: Error waiting for native console 31 activation: Invalid argument
Oct  2 18:57:21 b3 console-kit-daemon[2613]: WARNING: Error waiting for native console 32 activation: Invalid argument
Oct  2 18:57:21 b3 console-kit-daemon[2613]: WARNING: Error waiting for native console 33 activation: Invalid argument
Oct  2 18:57:21 b3 console-kit-daemon[2613]: WARNING: Error waiting for native console 34 activation: Invalid argument...

and more, like this,

Code: Select all

Oct  2 18:57:30 b3 hostapd: wlan0: STA a0:0b:ba:59:e2:1d IEEE 802.11: disassociated
Oct  2 18:57:31 b3 hostapd: wlan0: STA a0:0b:ba:59:e2:1d IEEE 802.11: deauthenticated due to inactivity

The last seems that it disconnect if it finds inactivity.

Could the above seriously be a normal behaviour?

TIA

Quickly checked my syslog (on my fully functioning B3). The hostapd lines you see seems to be normal, I have them too once or twice a day. However searching for console-kit-daemon errors in my syslog returns nothing, so it could be something that shouldn't be there. I haven't done any deeper research though...

The problems you are seing are not normal, it sounds as the B3 hangs hard (since the button won't work for shutdown) and you are one of very few reporters of this issue. All previously were solved with motherboard replacement - my guess is that you have a hardware error.

If you don't mind, send your unit to us and we'll replace your motherbaord, and the issue should be gone. Email [email protected] for instructions.

Best,

I also have similar problems with my bubba2, it was worse some months ago than now.
What happens is that my computer disconnects from bubbawifi for a minute, then it connects again. the wifi from the bubba is not turned off (i find it in windows), im just unable to connect to it.
Tried two pcs and my mobile phone, same problem.

Hi 86ivar, this is another issue, you are suffering from bad wifi drivers in Bubba2, and in conjunction with some clients (Apple are suspects here) this is a common symptom.

Our new Bubba2 software release will solve this (see here: http://forum.excito.net/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=3397)
