A couple of Network (wifi) issues on a 3.3 based HDD Install

[TimWhite]

Over the last few weeks I've started experiencing a couple of wifi network issues on on 3.3 based hdd install.

Hardware:
IBM Thinkpad600
Dell 1150 Wireless pcmcia card (Orinoco Gold)

Software Levels:
Apt-get update and upgrade fully up to date.

Issue 1:
This only seems to have started in the last couple of week.
Whenever a second wirelessly attached laptop is started, this machines connection to the wlan drops. '/etc/init.d/networking restart' doesn't seem to help. Removing and re-inserting the wlan card brings the connection back up.
It's not an IP clash.

Any thoughts?


Issue 2:
Seems to have started yesterday.
The wireless conection (eth0) is not brought up on boot. It is attempted, but fails. Waiting for boot to complete, then issuing '/etc/init.d/networking restart' as root brings the connection up. I know I could add a script at the end of the boot sequence to do this for me, but I would like to fix this properly.

Again, any thought?


Until the last few weeks, I've not had either of these issues. I assume that there is something new in testing/unstable causing this. Any know what?

Cheers

Edit:
Issue 2 appears to have been a one off. Network started fine today on boot.
