I don't know how/if driver can be responsible for such reconnects.
Over all it just TX and RX packets, right? Loosing a signal is
something different, that can be related to the driver's bug. But as
this happens every 5 minutes... I don't know.
Did you try connecting to this AP with any other card and using
similar kernel? I wonder if this can be some supplicant / mac80211
stack issue...
I just fired up my Thinkpad T510 with an Intel "Centrino Ultimate-N
6300" using iwlwifi, and it stays connected (does not appear to drop any
packets). This is also Fedora 18 x86_64 (slightly older kernel, but
I've had the problem on the MacBook since I installed it). There are
other people in the office with the same MacBook hardware (but running
OS X) that don't appear to be having any trouble either.
The AP appears to be an Adtran (don't know the model).
Can you make a capture using a wireless sniffer (using your thinkpad maybe)?
