Yes, that is probably the case and it was probably just by chance that
after downgrading the firmware I managed connecting for a couple of
times consecutively. Now, I cannot connect again and the only reliable
way of connecting seems to be by letting the mobile phone connect and
using cable or bluetooth tethering from android :-<

The problem is that the messages from Network manager are pure nonsense:
The applet hangs on "configuring the interface" for some time (which I
believe means it cannot complete the association and then it errors out
with "The interface cannot be found" or "No secrets were provided". Also
the systems log do not seem to provide any information on what part of
the negotiation is going wrong.

All this has started in the week beginning with Jul 15th and the local
network administrators here say that nothing has changed on their side
(also phones, window and apple computers can connect properly), so the
issue must be on my side and must follow some package update on my
system or some fault in my wifi card (but this seems strange because I
can connect to regular/non enterprise networks).

Any hint at trying to debug?
