For the mainline kernel to work with 802.11n-only APs and to reconnect after an
initial try, your kernel needs the following patches:

Both of these are in wireless-testing, and were just merged into the mainline
kernel. In addition, they were merged with the 3.0 stable tree today.
Both should be in wireless-next, but as I recall, you were not able to test with
that tree.
With the updated mainline kernel, the link is stable and performance is
acceptible with netperf TCP_STREAM (TX) at 20.5 +/- 4.8 Mbps and TCP_MAERTS (RX)
of 21.7 +/- 3.8 Mbps. These numbers are not spectacular, but they will do.
