Wifi USB Adapter stops working intermittently

OK. I just thought you wanted the Wireless to work. The internal is fully capable of WPA2 security. Why would you want to use the USB doggle if the internal will give the same results?

Anyway. If you want to use the USB doggle then you need to kill the internal.
Type in;

Code:

rfkill block wifi0

or

Code:

ifdown wifi0

What's the story on the other computer? Do you still need to eventually get the wireless working on it? Unless you gave it away. Then I guess there would be no need.
