This is a recent regression.
For some access points, eg @ my home, everything is fine as before.
But here @ university (open access points) this happens.

Looking at output of 'iw dev wlan 0 station dump' reveals very large
'inactive time'.

Reconnecting restores the connection briefly for yet another 30 seconds
or so.

Best regards,

PS: this is iwlwifi.git commit:

can't seem to reproduce it with wireless-testing of yestarday.
But I bet that this bug continues to exist.

Yep, this still happens.

I can easily reproduce that, but only at a specific spot, in my
University.

Happens with both old and new firmware.

I continue to investigate, maybe bisect.
Works fine with ubuntu kernel from 9.04.

It can be related to roaming.
