I decided to remove the card from the netbook and test it in another machine, and it worked flawlessly. A different card in the netbook works fine as well. But then after reinstalling the rtl8188ce in the netbook I'm not seeing any problems associating. None at all. So perhaps the issue was mechanical in nature. I'll keep testing it for a while to see if the problems resurface, but for now everything seems fine. Thanks for your help.
