[Cialug] Ubuntu on ThinkPad 600E

For example, when it was downlaoding updates, the network connection dialog showed receiving and disconnecting repeatedly during the receipt of each update file. That's what clued me on it. 

When I went to go to google, it was like it kept trying to connect. Under an http connection, it can't be interrupted or it will have to start all over. I knew it could reach the internet because it had downloaded the updates just fine.

Does that make sense? I couldn't think of what tool to use to troubleshoot this so I posted to the list.

Can you be more specific?  What are the symptoms?  For example, do you
see the problem when downloading a large file?  Or is that fetching
web pages comes up error often?  What exactly are you seeing?
