Comment 3 for bug 308053

The relevant dmesg output I get when this occurs is as follows:

[ 3603.194199] wlan0: No ProbeResp from current AP 00:0f:34:8f:98:d5 - assume out of range
[ 3603.939973] wlan0: No STA entry for own AP 00:0f:34:8f:98:d5
[ 3606.456102] wlan0: No STA entry for own AP 00:0f:34:8f:98:d5

[ 3616.446937] wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:0f:34:8f:98:d5
[ 3616.607757] wlan0: authentication with AP 00:0f:34:8f:98:d5 timed out

I'm not entirely certain if this is due to SKB buffers, but this occurs on a fairly regular basis. Running the workaround above allows the adapter to reconnect, but I cannot stay connected long enough to transfer a full CD image.
