Any hints? The common network problem in Ubuntu 12.04 with hang up within a couple of minutes.

With sudo I can restart the network-manager but it doesn't have effect to the connection.

  • Sorry for pasting without sudo. But I have already done so. No effect with sudo as well. The connecting only reappears after rebooting the whole system. Log attached above.

You need root level permission to execute this command.

Try

sudo service network-manager restart

And then type your password when requested.
