Thanks.  Are you using WPA or WEP?  (I'm guessing WPA.)

There have been some changes upstream recently, so please test Linus's
"master" or v3.3-rc4 or newer.  It works like this:

0. Prerequisites:
 apt-get install git build-essential

1. Get the source:
 git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git
 cd linux

   Or, if you already have a kernel tree, update it:
 cd linux
 git fetch origin

2. Make sure v3.2 reproduces the bug:
 git checkout v3.2
 cp /boot/config-$(uname -r) .config; # current configuration
 make localmodconfig; # optional: minimize configuration
 make deb-pkg; # optionally with -j<num> for parallel build
 dpkg -i ../<name of package>
 reboot

3. Try "master":
 git checkout origin/master
 make silentoldconfig; # reuse configuration
 make deb-pkg; # maybe with -j4
 dpkg -i ../<name of package>
 reboot

Hope that helps,
Jonathan
