I've encountered this bug (or couple of bugs) recently in Fedora 19. This happens both at home using WPA/WPA2 (confirmed switching to WEP solves the problem) as well as using the wireless at the college which I attend which I believe uses WPA Enterprise. Using the following on a laptop: supplicant package - wpa_supplicant-2.0-3.fc19.x86_64 kernel version - 3.11.4-201.fc19.x86_64 wireless nic - 03:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4313 802.11bgn Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01) Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device 1795 Kernel driver in use: wl Logs: http://paste.fedoraproject.org/46354/13815989/ http://paste.fedoraproject.org/47486/13820187/ I've posted logs at the other bug #927191 -- it was determined that there were two separate problems there, so we duplicated that report to here Seems to be a common problem at colleges wpa_supplicant-2.0-8.fc19 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 19. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/wpa_supplicant-2.0-8.fc19 wpa_supplicant-2.0-8.fc20 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 20. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/wpa_supplicant-2.0-8.fc20 So far so good -- I've been using wpa_supplicant-2.0-8.fc19 for a few hours now and there is no sign of needless deauthentications, the connection is stable! YAY! Thanks Dan! Package wpa_supplicant-2.0-8.fc19: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 19 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing wpa_supplicant-2.0-8.fc19' as soon as you are able to. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2013-21779/wpa_supplicant-2.0-8.fc19 then log in and leave karma (feedback). Update: So far, the above package is working well. The troublesome wifi connection is still a bit "off" (sometimes asking for passwords twice in a row) but the constant deauthenticating is gone and the connection is essentially stable once established. YAY! Thank you! I suspect (not sure) that the remaining annoying behavior may be something to do with resuming from suspend, and maybe the bugs where gnome-shell doesn't pass credentials back and forth to NetworkManager. I'm still getting an Associated -> Disconnected loop, however I'm also getting a warning that my kernel is tainted (broadcom wl driver) that may be part of the issue. I'll see if I can do some tinkering/troubleshooting tomorrow to further test and possibly fix the problem on my end and post feed back as soon as I can. It's the end of the semester, so things have gotten kind of nuts. Worst comes to worst I can try a reinstall after the course work for this semester is over (I need the Fedora installation as I'm packaging for Pidora for a current class). wpa_supplicant-2.0-8.fc20 has been pushed to the Fedora 20 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. wpa_supplicant-2.0-8.fc19 has been pushed to the Fedora 19 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. |
