The AP reports the connection as being 802.11g never 802.11n (laptop and AP will connect at 802.11n using another OS). With either AP there is nothing in dmesg to suggest that the regulatory domain is being recognised and changed from US to EU although both have EU firmware.

Can you post the debug log after you try to associate ? Also, the commands that you used, the AP's details (encryption, mode).
