Maybe we are looking at the wrong software here. Could it be that this is a problem of wpa_supplicant instead? I attached the specific part of my syslog when the deauthentication occurs. For the first 6 lines everything's ok, though I believe the DHCP lease time of my university network is _way_ too small. But then on line 7 wpa_supplicant tells that it has started an authentication - which finally leads to a "wlan0: deauthenticating from 00:26:99:50:07:dc by local choice (reason=3)" on line 15 and the NetworkManager to reauthenticate.
It is actually funny that this bug seems to occur very often in the 'eduroam' university network - maybe the DHCP lease time is the trigger. I also encounter this problem at home but not so frequently. I will try to use a static IP on my university network today and write a comment on what happened. ** Attachment added: "syslog.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/548992/+attachment/1701222/+files/syslog.txt -- Wireless connection frequently drops [deauthenticating by local choice (reason=3)] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/548992 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
