Title:
wireless connection doesn't work properly when seeing many APs
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
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)
