Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Can't tell from which kernel version the problem started. There was no such problem when the fedora 19 first installed. The problem lasted with kernel 3.11.7-200.fc19.x86_64, interestingly disappeared with 3.11.8-200.fc19.x86_64 and happened again with 3.11.9-200.fc19.x86_64 Wireless controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Wireless-N 1000 [Condor Peak] How reproducible: Connect to WPA2/PEAP and use the computer for a while until wifi connection failed. Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Unable to reconnect unless reboot.

No one paid attention on this subject? Actually it's very annoying.
Just have the kernel updated to 3.11.10. Problem remains. Found a similar bug report: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1020018 But the problem looks different from the message file.
*********** MASS BUG UPDATE ************** We apologize for the inconvenience. There is a large number of bugs to go through and several of them have gone stale. Due to this, we are doing a mass bug update across all of the Fedora 19 kernel bugs. Fedora 19 has now been rebased to 3.12.6-200.fc19. Please test this kernel update (or newer) and let us know if you issue has been resolved or if it is still present with the newer kernel. If you have moved on to Fedora 20, and are still experiencing this issue, please change the version to Fedora 20. If you experience different issues, please open a new bug report for those.
Hi Lei, can you test with kernel 3.12.6-200.fc19 and also attach lspci -nvvv and dmidecode to this bz please? Thanks, Michele
*********** MASS BUG UPDATE ************** This bug has been in a needinfo state for more than 1 month and is being closed with insufficient data due to inactivity. If this is still an issue with Fedora 19, please feel free to reopen the bug and provide the additional information requested.
Hi Michele, sorry for late response. It has been a long time since the problem disappeared. Unfortunately, I can't recall the kernel version which fixed it. Anyway, it's good to have a no bug wifi connection since then. Thanks, Lei
Just ensure the closure.
