I have the same bug on a Dell Vostro 1520 with Intel Wifi Link 5100 adapter.
Wireless did show up as being "connected" after login, but in fact communication did not work.
Turning it off and on again using the hardware switch was a possible workaround.

I can confirm that the workaround in the problem description (disabling N mode) makes wifi work right from the beginning.
