I'm getting repeated disconnects of my wireless link every two minutes 
or so, and I'm not sure how to trace the problem.

I'm running Sarge, kernel 2.6.8.1, Netgear MA401 card.  I ruled out 
interference (tried various channels).  The disconnects only seem to 
happen during network inactivity (power management on the card is off 
according to iwconfig).

The problem is annoying because every disconnect causes my laptop hard 
disk to spin up.

Any advice would be appreciated.
