Description:
Hi!

I know this should probably be reported somewhere else, but I don't know where yet, and maybe you could help me!

I have an Intel 6200AGN rev 35 wireless card. In my university, WPA2 Enterprise TKIP, after a few minutes of connectivity, I stop being able to route packets. The AP stops replying to ARP requests. NetworkManager keeps the icon as the connection were ok, but I stop being able to ping the default gateway.

It only fails on this network, all other WPA (personal) and open work like a charm.
It may have started about a month ago. I can't relate it to the wpa_supplicant update, because I just built 0.6.10 and the problem remains.
Probably the kernel/firmware?



Additional info:
Name : wpa_supplicant
Version : 0.7.3-4

Name : linux
Version : 3.1.4-1

Name : linux-firmware
Version : 20111101-1

* config and/or log files etc.
I can't see anything relevant in dmesg, or messages.log.
Maybe only these on errors.log, which come up when I kill the wifi interface in the switch:

It's not the linux-firmware as well. I changed the ucode to 9.193.4.1 build 19710 (the previous I found in the git repo) and the same problem ocurrs... -.-'

Let me remind that this network works without problems in windows!!

Status?

I'm completely sorry I forgot this. This was solved at about Linux 3.2.9, based on discussions at a mailing list.
It still occasionally happens in a particular network, but I'm pretty sure it's a problem on the network end...

Thanks for looking at this, I think you can close the issue.
