Comment 3 for bug 114310

I am also experiencing this behavior

Ubuntu Version: 7.04
Kernel: 2.6.20-16
Hardware: netgear wg111v2 (rtl8187 chipset, using rtl8187 driver)

Any clues on this one would be great, my first guest would be a timing issue but that is just huge speculation

* /etc/network/interfaces

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

#auto eth0
allow-hotplug eth0

auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
    wpa-driver wext
    wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf

* /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
#ctrl_interface_group=0
#eapol_version=1
# ap_scan=2 was the one for me you may try 0 or 1 instead of 2
#ap_scan=1
#fast_reauth=1
