I just updated kernel to 32 and NM to 0.7.1-r6, and now it won't connect to WPA. It initiates connection, asks or asks not for a key (based on if it was saved previously), obtains IP, sets the routes, and disconnects almost immediately. Open nets or WPE-protected work fine. WiFi module - iwl3945 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.NetworkManager-0.7.1-r6, nm-applet-0.7.1.-r3 2.choose WPA-protected net from the list Actual Results: endless loop of connection-disconnection. when it says it connected signal's meter is in zero. in a few seconds it says "disconnected" and begin to connect again Expected Results: normal connection
Created attachment 212278 [details] (NetworkManager --no-daemon)'s output one iteration of the endless connection-disconnection loop

Do you have the same problem with kernel 2.6.31? From logs I can see that networkmanager works perfectly fine, but driver for your hardware is loosing connection. Could you please try if you can reproduce problem on kernel 2.6.31?
Created attachment 212337 [details] NetworkManager on 2.6.31-r4 kernel-2.6.31-gentoo-r4 - same situation except signal meter's level: it's not zero like in .32 but the real level (i have about 80%). But the rest is alike: it's not workable. I really doubt that the problem is in driver, as now i'm writing this from the very same laptop with my net-auth changed to WEP - all working. I almost sure, that if i config my WiFi manually by init script it would work on both kernels, and that something is wrong in NM-wpa_supplicant interaction
