It may not only be an issue with Ubuntu; however, I am not aware of problems 
posted elsewhere. I am also aware that Ubuntu user space has a lot more trouble 
than I see with NetworkManager on openSUSE. I doubt that the Ubuntu devs would 
do much with a bug report.

Have you tried the backports package? It has material that will be in 3.14. If 
that still has the same problem, then I would need to see whatever diagnostics 
that your system outputs. As I am not an Ubuntu user, I have no idea where it 
might be. The stuff from dmesg is a help, but not usually definitive. What 
make/model of AP are you using? Is the firmware up to date? What encryption mode 
do you use, and is it 802.11n or g?
