Hi!
I have a weird problem with wpa_supplicant (0.6.9) and the latest Karmic-Release on my Thinkpad T40p (Atheros AR5212 Chipset with ath5k-Driver). I can connect with NM without problems, but every 2 minutes wpa_supplicant scans the AP which takes 5-6 seconds and meanwhile no packages are transferred! There is no packet loss, the transfer is just delayed.
Syslog says:
