At some point NM looses wi-fi link and tries to re-associate, failing on assert: Feb 3 20:09:51 unicorn NetworkManager: <info> Supplicant state changed: 0 Feb 3 20:09:59 unicorn NetworkManager: <info> ath0: link timed out.

Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. Connect to wi-fi AP 2. Sit and wait
I can't reproduce this here - are you using trunk svn or the 0.9.4 branch? (please test with the 0.9.4 branch of the madwifi drivers please) I use the 0.9.4 branch - and I've been using the 0.9.3.3 drivers and NM for ages without issue, so I am not quite sure what you mean.... Also, I don't use the madwifi useflag with wpa_supplicant.
I *think* I'm seeing this too with rtl8180 card rather than madwifi. When I force re-association NM crashes. Used to work fine in networkmanager-0.6.5_p20070823. How do I produce the nice log like Vladimir Pouzanov to confirm whether or not this is the same issue?
Can't really reproduce this one now, everything seems to be fine but I don't remember changing anything.
I too seem to be suffering from this bug when connecting to the wireless network at work using WPA2 Enterprise/PEAP with MSCHAPv2 connecting with an IPW2200, reverting to the previous NM release fixes the problems.

Have you tried with 0.7.1-r6 ?
(In reply to comment #5) > Have you tried with 0.7.1-r6 ? > Closing since current stable includes lots of fixes regarding to AP reassociation since 0.6.5 Please try with current stable version and feel free to reopen if needed Thanks
