Title:
  network manager looses wireless connection, reconnect not possible

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

Bug description:
  After a certain time (approximately 8-12h) the wireless connection is
  dropped. A reconnect does not work.

  I have reported a similar issue with NM 0.7x and 0.8. The issue then
  was, that the connection password for WPA2 was encrypted twice.

  Was fixed in later releases and now it's back.

  I haven't had time to verify in the source code but from what I see,
  this seems pretty much the same bug.

  Mitigation:

  disable wireless
  rfkill unblock all
  enable wireless

  (disable should not block wlan either)
