At random times, several time sper day after upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04, my 
wireless connection gets disconnected and the system log shows:
May  2 13:17:01 Baba-Yaga CRON[18205]: (root) CMD (   cd / && run-parts 
--report /etc/cron.hourly)
May  2 13:40:03 Baba-Yaga wpa_supplicant[1553]: wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED 
bssid=d4:ca:6d:57:91:d1 reason=0
May  2 13:40:03 Baba-Yaga NetworkManager[1200]: <info> (wlan0): roamed from 
BSSID D4:CA:6D:57:91:D1 (Host) to (none) ((none))
May  2 13:40:03 Baba-Yaga NetworkManager[1200]: <info> (wlan0): supplicant 
interface state: completed -> disconnected
May  2 13:40:03 Baba-Yaga wpa_supplicant[1553]: wlan0: Reject scan trigger 
since one is already pending
May  2 13:40:03 Baba-Yaga wpa_supplicant[1553]: wlan0: Failed to initiate AP 
scan

At this point, I will never be able to reconnect to the access point and
after several attempts, the wirless connection is removed from the
NetworkManager applet and the only way to get the wirless connection
back, is to shut down the machine, turn it back on and let it boot. Just
doing a warm reboot will not resolve the issue in many cases. A cold
reboot always will.

This is a Realtek USB based WiFi device and I have used it now for a few
years without issues. Moving the WiFi device to a Windows PC shows that
it works as intended and is never disconnecting or losing connection in
any way.
