Hi,
with the newly released NM, my wireless connection no longer runs
smoothly. It starts out OK, but then after some minutes will become
unresponsive until the kernel decides to reset the device. Then after
some minutes, the same and so on. There seem to problems with NM trying
to continually setting the frequency of the card (which fails), and some
management queue filling up (?) The relevant part of /var/log/messages
follows (XXXXXXX being not my real essid, which is not broadcasted by
the way):
