In my case it fails with this: [ 76.232020] wlan0: deauthenticating from xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx by local choice (reason=3) Which means something deauthed the connection in the meantime. This happens with kernel 3.2.6, but rebooting into 3.2.5 works just fine. It doesn't make a whole lot of sense. If you are also running 3.2.6, try 3.2.5 - if that works we are onto something. -- Alan McKinnnon alan.mckin...@gmail.com
