I am not sure what is going on there -- it's the eduroam at my university (WPA-EAP, certificate authentication via PAP). They are using Cisco routers with a firmware that has some buffer overflow issues if too many connections are opened at the same time. As I am not resonsible for the machines, I cannot debug this. All I know is that from time to time, the connection dies -- although I am still connected --- and I have to issue a reconnect with nectfg.
So you are still associated/authenticated to the AP, right? When you reconnect is the same AP or a different one? This info should be in /var/log/{kernel,daemon}.log where MACs are printed. I'm not objecting to netcfg modifications -- just trying to see if there a bigger wpa_supplicant issue here...
Which I tried to make simpler syntacticwise and which I would really like to discuss now.
