Howard, did you apply the pending group key patch yet?
Yes, the patch didn't improve the situation on my wireless-testing build. It
works fine on my 2.6.27-rc6 build though.

Can you provide a long of your wireless-testing run with the group key
patch applied?

The log I posted already had the group key patch applied. I have an earlier log (Sep 18) from before patching, but it doesn't look much different. Do you want me to post that?

Also, please try running wpa_supplicant manually, but
first be sure to disable Network Manager completely by doing:

Will try that shortly.
