Lately I've been experiencing some problems with my wifi connection.
My phone is unable to connect to any APs available around most of the time. Whenever it connects to an AP, it immediately disconnects within 5 minutes.
The weird thing is that I experience no problems with wifi in meego and in nitdroid.
I believe that a reflash would solve the problem but I prefer to overcome the problem without it.
Honestly, I have no idea on how to approach to this problem since I'm no linux expert.
Anyway, here are some logs if they help:
dmesg:

Hi Drucula,

Did you find any fix to your problem?

I have the same dmesg messages, except after "ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready" it doesn't authenticate to any network, just times out.

My iwconfig wlan0 has Tx-Power set to 20.

Thanks,

jb
