Title:
  wireless connection doesn't work properly when seeing many APs

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: network-manager

  Hello,
  in our university environment there are many Xirrus WiFi Arrays that each 
have 4 or 8 access points integrated. So the client sees many APs and has to 
choose one.

  In Ubuntu 9.10 and 10.04 the Network Manager is constantly roaming and
  disconnecting/reconnecting, and often it doesn't even succeed to get
  an IP address. Sometimes it works for a while, then it roams to
  another AP and suddenly IP connectivity is interrupted although I'm
  associated and still have an IP address. This often can only be
  corrected by turning off and on the wireless switch on the notebook.

  This does not happen with WICD on Ubuntu (uses wpa_supplicant, too),
  or with networkmanager on SuSE.  So I think the networkmanager in
  Ubuntu is the problem.

  Attached is the daemon.log showing the problems.

  Driver and hardware information:
  - Intel PRO/Wireless 5300 AGN
  - iwlagn module
  - kernel 2.6.32-22 (but with versions from Ubuntu 9.10 and with recent 
linux-wireless-patches, too)
  - eduroam wireless network with WPA2 and 802.1x (TTLS)
