[Bug 1444094] [NEW] Often have to reload wl module to connect to WPA2/Enterprise network

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I have a WPA2 Enterprise network at work using PEAP authentication with
a CA cert that I have on disk and MSCHAPv2 inner authentication.  I can
connect to it fine via gnome's network-manager integration, but often
(1-3 times per day) need to rmmod wl; modprobe wl; in order to
successfully associate with the AP.  The only related log message I see
in syslog when this happens is:

 NetworkManager[9871]: <warn> Activation (wlan0/wireless): association took too long, failing activation.
 NetworkManager[9871]: <info> (wlan0): device state change: config -> failed (reason 'ssid-not-found') [50 120 53]


I do not have this issue with my WPA2 Personal AP at home.
