Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 12.04.1

The wireless connection will intermittently  lose connection to the router.  It 
seems to happen at random times.  The connection would fail for about 1-3 
minutes then come back, if it is over 3 minutes I must reboot the wireless card 
using a soft reset. 
I captured what I could from the log files while the error was happening.  The 
network connection uses WPA2 encryption.
