downgrading the respective firmware to an older release helped.

the system was loading iwlwifi-7260-15.ucode which seemed to be the
source of trouble. Removing any firmware but iwlwifi-7260-10.ucode
allows me to reliably connect to my network again.

Title:
  network manager does not connect to AP anymore

Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  network manager does not connect to my AP anymore, tries to
  authenticate and then asks for a password (of a previously connected
  wifi network). Upon entering the right password manually and/or
  verifying the stored password is correct the connection still fails.

  I have not been able to get a concise list of actions that get me connected, but a wild mix of:
  rmmod iwlmvm iwlwifi
  modprobe iwlmvm iwlwifi
  killall wpa_supplicant
  iwlist scanning
  (dis-/enabling networking in NWmgr)
  (dis-/enabling wifi in NWmgr) 

  gets me back online
