Okay so I've gone as long as I can with this problem and it's driving me crazy.
After a certain amount of time (usually an hour) my internet connection will drop on my laptop, it will stay down for a few seconds then come back up, go back down after a few minutes, and keeps repeating. I'll attach some images to better show what's happening. But it is only the internet connection, not the network. I can still connect to my router, transfer files, etc over the network. I've looked and tried everything I know how to do. I disabled IPV6 to see if that was it. It works fine if I connect via ethernet.
My setup:
Fedora 11
Dell E1705 Laptop
Broadcom BCM4312 Wireless (of course it has issues :P) using Broadcom STA driver
