2 weeks ago I tested the latest upstream kernel built for Ubuntu :
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.10-rc2-saucy/
I had everything set to default (fresh Ubuntu install) and can confirm the bug was there.

I've been testing the latestet build today :
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.10-rc4-saucy/

I have disabled all the workarounds I had previously set
- re-enabling ANI
- re-enabling power management
- re-enabling hwcrypt
- BSSID not set manually in Network Manager

I can confirm that the bug exists (tested this morning)
- in the standard Ubuntu kernel (3.8.0-23-generic)
- in the latest upstream kernel (3.10.0-031000rc4-generic #201306020443 SMP Sun Jun 2 08:43:56 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux)

With 3.10, when disabling power management (without touching to hwcrypt, BSSID or ANI) enables me to get the connectiion working at boot, but I get disconnected afterwards.

Disabling both power management and ANI helps me get the connection working at boot and keep it alive afterwards.

I've not disabled hwcrypt again as it seems to work, or added back a fixed BSSID in Network Manager, but I can do further testing if need be.
