It seems to depend a lot on the driver/card you use. For instance, my
iwl3945 randomly "thinks" it got disconnected from the AP and NM will
go nuts trying to reconnect. I usually can get by using only
wpa_supplicant with the following config:
network={
ssid="eduroam"
key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
eap=PEAP
identity="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
password="my_pass"
phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
}
and then:
$ sudo wpa_supplicant -c/path/to/wpa_supplicant.conf -iwlan0 -Dwext -wB
$ sudo dhclient wlan0
Of course the driver sometimes still thinks it has been disconnected
and I just have to wait some minutes for it to associate again, but at
least I don't get the "insert your configuration again" NM dialog.
FWIW, all this is on Fedora 8 with latest NM 0.7.0 bits.
Good luck,
Rui
