What exactly happens when a connection fails? What client device are you
using?

cw1200 is a mac80211 driver and the interface to user space is different
compared to fullmac devices like ath6kl. That's why the log output is
different.

Is this from a failing case? From a quick look I don't see anything
wrong in the logs.

What are the symptoms when the connection fails? Did you check that this
isn't a higher level problem (wrong IP address etc)?
