Log of a connection followed by a disconnection

Shortly after a connection is established, NetworkManager disconnects from the AP. Connecting using dhcpcd and wpa_supplicant seems to be working fine, however.

My wifi adapter is listed in lspci as: 

03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Wireless-N 100
	Subsystem: Intel Corporation Centrino Wireless-N 100 BGN
	Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 48
	Memory at ddc00000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=8K]
	Capabilities: [c8] Power Management version 3
	Capabilities: [d0] MSI: Enable+ Count=1/1 Maskable- 64bit+
	Capabilities: [e0] Express Endpoint, MSI 00
	Capabilities: [100] Advanced Error Reporting
	Capabilities: [140] Device Serial Number 78-92-9c-ff-ff-37-a8-22
	Kernel driver in use: iwlwifi

Kernel module iwlwifi is provided by compat-wireless 3.5-r1, but switching to 3.6_rc5 did not fix the problem.

I am still having the problem at the time of writing this, so feel free to ask me for anymore details.

This was reported against an old version of NetworkManager.

I'm closing the bug for now, please reopen if the issue still happens on recent
versions, thanks.
