I had a similiar issue, a user that doesn't have a clue what the wifi
password is, so I spent lots of time to tell that 'all you need to do is
press that reconnect button.... duh!'
There were some problems with wifi device that caused it to timeout like
that.
Now I use latest -git of NM and wpa_supplicant, latest wireless-testing
and I never see that dialog, even after many minutes, if I on purpose
set invalid password.
Maybe this got fixed?
