I have random disconnects when connecting to an ESS (eduroam) using
EAP-PEAP/MSCHAPv2 and iwl3945.

I don't know exactly what the cause is, so I'm asking here.

Here's a snippet from the output of wpa_cli (removed lines, connection
drops randomly, can hold >30 minutes working fine):
(connection managed by NetworkManager)


<3>CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED bssid=b8:62:1f:54:c2:02 reason=2
<3>CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED bssid=00:00:00:00:00:00 reason=3
<3>CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED bssid=00:1f:ca:d2:20:0e reason=10

<3>CTRL-EVENT-EAP-STARTED EAP authentication started
<3>CTRL-EVENT-EAP-FAILURE EAP authentication failed

<3>CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED bssid=00:1f:ca:d2:20:0e reason=3


I'm going to blame the driver since there are so much different
reasons but I thought I'd gather more opinions first.

Any ideas on what to blame?
