Here are the contents of the connection file. I disable ipv6 to avoid the problem mentioned in this bug report. Anyway now i have a new one, WiFi password is being reseted (not saved in the file?) after each reboot and i have to type it each time. Before the update that caused this bug report, all was working fine.

Disabling IPv6 for this connection solved the problem. Here are some relevant lines from the system log when the wifi connection reset happens: Mar 30 19:53:33 edcrane NetworkManager[782]: <info> Activation (wlan0) Stage 1 of 5 (Device Prepare) scheduled...
