Title:
  Cannot connect to android 2.2 hotspot via wi-fi

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Ever since I updated to 11.04 I am not able to connect to my phones
  wi-fi hotspot anymore. This worked ok before, but stopped with the
  upgrade. Still works with older Ubuntu installations and other
  systems, so it's not the phone.

  $ lsb_release -rd
  Description:	Ubuntu 11.04
  Release:	11.04

  $ lshw -C
    *-network
         description: Wireless interface
         product: AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express)
         vendor: Atheros Communications Inc.
         physical id: 0
         bus info: pci@0000:04:00.0
         logical name: wlan0
         version: 01

  Expected behaviour: establish a connection as with every other wi-fi
  ap.

  I get these messages in dmesg:

  Other people appear to have the same issue, but nobody, as far as I
  can see, has reported it:
