This is on Ubuntu Feisty network-manager 0.6.4-6ubuntu7

I'm not sure if this is related to the (Atheros only?) frequent
disconnects, but when I'm running long tasks on the laptop the network
becomes unavailable and I have to reboot (but, I can't reboot because
I'm waiting on the long-running task to complete first).

I can't tell if it's not connecting because of the "max number of
pending replies" or because of the "New wireless user key requested
for network 'hanklan'" yet it's not asking me for my pass phrase.

Normally, when I first boot and start GNOME 

I see this in the logs (sorry for the long lines):
