 I have a fresh install of Ubuntu 14.04 running, using Firefox 29.  The
 time is variable from 2 minutes to 20 minutes, but the wifi connection
 gets dropped.  I need to disable and re-enable the wifi to connect again.
 A few minutes latter, it starts again.  I have only Lasspass and HTTPS
 Everywhere installed.  I tried every Ubuntu fix I could find (disable
 wireless N, disable power saving etc) but the only thing that worked was
 removing HTTPS Everywhere.  Clearly HTTPS E is implicated, but should I
 also report this bug to Mozilla? Ubuntu?  As far as the router is
 concerned, I am running Tomato USB, WPA AES (not TKIP and AES).  Please
 let me know if I can provide further details.  I am okay with Linux but
 for more advanced details, please give me a touch of guidance.
