Hello list,

I have a strange problem with an EAP-Network here. I can associate just 
fine, but approx 1 min after the _initial_ connection completed the 
network hangs. Though all the tools say I'm still connected (nm-applet, 
iwconfig) I can't ping anything. I have to re-new the connection with 
nm-applet and after that it works again (and longer!).

1. boot notebook and associate with wifi
2. wait 1 min -> hang
3. re-establish connection with nm-applet
4. after that it never hangs again (mostly)

You can find the log here: http://jan.willies.info/wpa_supplicant.log

Dan Williams says the interesting line is 1242720593.722277: "the driver 
sends an association event *after* it's completed association, which the 
supplicant interprets as a restart of the authentication process".

This is a Thinkpad X300 with Fedora 11 (iwlagn-1.3.27kds and 
wpa_supplicant-0.6.8)


regards,
