This is a better patch, which fixes the driver_wext in wpasupplicant when using broadcom's wl driver and shouldn't have effect when using any other underlying wifi driver, this is adapted from here to the current version of wpasupplicant in ubuntu:
http://lists.shmoo.com/pipermail/hostap/2011-March/022891.html With this patch, the time to wait after a suspend when using networkmanager is around 12 seconds, i think it's an acceptable alternative if the patch gets included in ubuntu's wpasupplicant package. ** Patch added: "wpasupplicant_fix_wext_for_wl.patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/994739/+attachment/3155845/+files/wpasupplicant_fix_wext_for_wl.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/994739 Title: wireless takes several seconds longer to connect from standby Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in “wpasupplicant” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: My observation is that network-manager is taking longer to connect to my wireless access point than 11.10.
