On my machine, I seem to have temporarily stopped this problem, although by the 
lack of activity on this thread
it may be that in more recent kernels the problem is already fixed. 

lspci shows my wireless card as

03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Ultimate-N 6300
(rev 35)

I am running Fedora 15 with kernel 2.6.43.8-1.

First I downloaded the most recent firmware (9.221.4 ) for the wireless card 
from here:
http://intellinuxwireless.org/?n=downloads&f=ucodes_6000

I unziped and untared the file and put the ucode in /lib/firmware.

Then unload the kernel module

rmmod iwlwifi

and reinsert the module with bt_coex_active=0.

modprobe iwlwifi bt_coex_active=0

For me, this lets me connect reliably(well, all morning) to a WPA2 network, 
which I couldn't do before.
It connects at good wireless N bitrates, and seems stable.  However, there are 
still large
numbers of Tx excessive retries.

Hope this works for someone else.
