I am also affected. Laptop is a ThinkPad X121e brought in October 2011. Same behaviour as above. In both 11.10 and 12.04 the WLAN connection is very unstable and even hard to establish. Observed behaviour is that after an apparently random period of time there is no more communication possible on the connection, but the network manager still indicates an established connection. A manual reconnection fixes the problem for the moment but it reappears again after some minutes.
I propose to set the Importance to high at least, given the fact that it affects quite a lot of people and that it severely affects the usability. Having to reset the WLAN connection every few minutes severely reduces the working efficiency.
