I'm not 100% sure whether this is the bug affecting me. Won't be in much of a position to test in the near future, but thought I'd add my symptoms in case they help. I'm running an up-to-date beta of the lucid netbook edition and network-manager has no problems whatsoever connecting to unsecured networks and WPA-Personal networks. My university's encrypted network uses WPA-Enterprise with PEAP and MSCHAPv.2. I am sometimes able to connect, but am dropped within a matter of minutes with syslog messages like the following (after a successful connection):

It can then no longer connect, even on repeated attempts. University tech support can't figure out whether anything is wrong from their end, but I'll post anything they send me if relevant.
