After installing from the NetworkManager daily PPA, my disconnects have been less frequent, but they still happen about every 5-10 minutes.

In syslog, the following lines show up with every disconnect:

Aug 22 15:10:28 laptop wpa_supplicant[1027]: CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED - Disconnect event - remove keys
Aug 22 15:10:28 laptop NetworkManager[1002]: <info> (eth2): supplicant connection state: completed -> disconnected
Aug 22 15:10:28 laptop NetworkManager[1002]: <info> (eth2): supplicant connection state: disconnected -> scanning

Aug 22 15:10:44 laptop NetworkManager[1002]: <info> (eth2): device state change: 8 -> 3 (reason 11)

the line
 ... roamed from BSSID XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX (network) to (none) ((none))
only shows up on some disconnects
