This is probably not a bug with wicd since I'm having an identical issue
with network-manager in (x)ubuntu 10.10 rc.

There is nothing wrong with the wireless network here in the university
(we use eduroam), it works flawlessly on the same hardware under Windows
(XP/7) as well as on my android phone.

I'd rather guess this has something to do with timeouts beeing set too short and triggering prematurely.
I did for example find this:
[ 1723.492120] No probe response from AP 00:25:84:49:db:64 after 500ms, disconnecting.
Which, imho, seems a bit short in a crowded wireless environment.

While writing this I believe a lot of users has left the building (it's
now 16:30 local time) and consequently, the connection seems to be
pretty stable now compared to an hour ago, but I will get a chance to
verify this assumption tomorrow.
