One more thing I realized now: While the connection is cut off
the kernel/network-manager belives I am connected:
# ifconfig wlan0
wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:16:ea:2c:6c:4a
inet addr:192.168.1.22 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:20368 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:21606 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:11031455 (10.5 MiB) TX bytes:2927239 (2.7 MiB)
#

If I do during this time a ping of a remote host, interestingly:
- TX packgets and TX bytes go UP
- RX bytes go also up!
- RX packages stay the same, seems that the RX packets are not recognized

It seems with the changes now the TX is working, but RX is not.

Best wishes
