Comment 1 lionghostshop 2011-05-30 00:53:17 UTC 
This is not always reproducible. I will add more information when it occurs again.
Comment 2 lionghostshop 2011-05-30 06:05:35 UTC 
I found that the problem only occurs in my lab. In other locations of my university, I can connect to the access points with WPA2, Enterprice. In my lab, other labtops and my cell phone can connect to AP without any problem. Please feel free to ask more information about the bug
Comment 3 Stanislaw Gruszka 2012-02-27 10:10:26 UTC 
The same as for bug 746744 . We can not connect on locations where signal is weak. I can not do anything with that.
