Created attachment 320423 [details] Output of /var/log/messages for the last timeout which occurred at 23:58 14 Oct 2008 Description of problem: NetworkManager randomly disconnects from wireless networks after some time and fails to reconnect to the network. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): NetworkManager-0.7.0-0.11.svn4022.4.fc9.i386 kernel-2.6.25.14-108.fc9.i686 libdhcp6client-1.0.14-1.fc9.i386 dhcpv6-client-1.0.14-1.fc9.i386 libdhcp4client-4.0.0-18.fc9.i386 libdhcp-1.99.8-1.fc9.i386 How reproducible: Since the update to NetworkManager-0.7.0-0.11.svn4022.4.fc9.i386 this has been an on-going issue, after reboot networkmanager will disconnect from any wifi network it is connected to within 3 - 6 hours. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Establish connection to wireless network (WIFI) this does not appear to affect CDMA/EVDO connections, only wifi connections. 2. After 3 - 6 hours the connection will be lost and not re-established, sometimes prompting for the security key other times no indication other than the loss of the connection. 3. If wireless is disabled and re-enabled the connection will be restored, but after some time will be lost again with the same indications Actual results: Loss of network connectivity Expected results: Network connectivity should remain stable, and connected. If disconnected the connection should be re-established. Additional info:

In the initial commit of the bug I indicated the incorrect kernel, I am actually using kernel-2.6.26.5-45.fc9.i686, sorry for any confusion this caused. If you need further information please let me know.
Can you run 'iwevent' as root in a terminal and paste in what events happen around the disconnection times? Looks more like driver problems here since the driver clearly worked before (23:23:09) but reconnect after being reconfigured... Sometimes the AP flakes out as well. What model of AP is this?
Actually it is 2 AP's, it occurs with my Dlink DGL-4300 which I thought was the initial problem, and I purchased a brand new Dlink WBR-1310. It also occurs with both laptops here mine which is listed above and has the Intel card, and my wifes laptop which has a broadcom device. I will provide the information needed when it occurs next.
Created attachment 321389 [details] Iwevent command capturing when network manager stopped working properly as requested As requested here it the iwevent output, I actually started running it before the disconnection occurred capturing the output in a text file.
Scott: are you familiar enough with wpa_supplicant to be able to construct a config file that we can test with? NM will only terminate the connection if the supplicant cannot reconnect after 25 seconds, and this looks like driver issues. 21:46:06.533546 wlan0 New Access Point/Cell address:Not-Associated 21:46:07.537621 wlan0 Custom driver event:ASSOCINFO(ReqIEs=000e544845474c41534552532e4e4554010802040b160c12182432043048606c RespIEs=010882848b960c18304832041224606cdd0600032f010001) 21:46:07.543371 wlan0 New Access Point/Cell address:00:1E:58:FD:24:C3 <reassociated> 21:51:57.639607 wlan0 New Access Point/Cell address:Not-Associated <dropped connection> 21:52:12.852173 wlan0 Scan request completed 21:52:47.673443 wlan0 Scan request completed 21:52:47.673515 wlan0 New Access Point/Cell address:Not-Associated <never reassociated> Could you look in the kernel logs (run 'dmesg') and correlate any messages you see from wlan0 with the times shown here and see if there are any messages about disconnection there? They usually include a reason code that we can use to better determine what caused the disconnect.
Created attachment 321569 [details] Kernel log for requested times I am not using wpa, so I am not sure if setting up wpa_supplicant will help. Only using WEP as I am in a rural location with no risk of anybody hacking my wireless, but here are the kernel logs for that time frame. Let me know what else you need.
Since I am having the exact issue, I'll add some more caviats: HW: 03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN Network Connection (rev 61) AP: doesn't matter either (linksys wrt54g or netgear 614v6) Enc: WPA (though unencrypted drops the same as well) ---- Also, if I plug a Linksys USB wireless card and have the exact same settings and have it controlled through NetworkManager, no problems at all. Got to the point where using the iwl4965 card is useless because it'll drop for no reason when I'm in the same room with no interference from the AP. Of course, the Linksys USB has not had one issue. This is also, if to say it even connects in the first place.
I believe I am seeing this on F10 with Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG Rev 5.. I will be working on my laptop and suddenly get prompted for the WPA key. So far this has only happened to me at the office (WPA), and not at home(WEP)- both nets use 802.11G.
When this happens to me I've also found that if I cancel at entry of the key, network manager tells me the network is disconnected, but I'm still online and able to access the network.
On an Acer Aspire One, using ath5k, I see the same problem. Having changed to KNetworkManager, however, I no longer have the problem of the looping password-request. Logwatch offers the following information, which seems to refer to this problem: kdm: :0: gnome-keyring-daemon: couldn't lookup keyring component setting: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash.

The only way to re-connect quickly is to reboot.
Scott: Does the original problem get any better with kernel updates? Could you update to the latest F-9 kernel (2.6.27.12-78.2.8.fc9) and see if that works better for you?
Dan, Since I filed this bug I have upgraded to F10 and have not seen the problem. Maybe somebody else on this bug list can try this kernel and see if it fixes the issue. Sorry.
Sounds good; if it's a problem for anyone else, please re-open this bug. Thanks!
