Comment 3 for bug 298198

no, I don't have your issue. My problem started AFTER there was an update, I never got it working right after that update. So I decided to do a fresh new install because it was working before the update, but not after that update. After the fresh install, the problem has not re-appeared. It is holding the WIFI connection flawlessly now for some unknown reason. I have no clue what went wrong that started the issue, but the fresh install seems to have corrected my issue for now. I have noticed that there have been up to 3 network-manager-gnome updates now since I first reported this issue, maybe one of them resolved my issue but needed a fresh install too correct what ever had gone wrong. I believe that you might very well resolve your issue by doing a fresh install. its a pain I know, but if its an uncorrectable problem in place, then it would at least rule out the possibility of an uncorrectable/identifiable configuration issue.
