NetworkManager tries to connect, but usually does not associate [dmesg]:
[14849.660084] wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:1f:3f:13:d2:ec
[14849.860087] wlan0: authentication with AP 00:1f:3f:13:d2:ec timed out

The NetworkManager logs do not reveal anything more than that.

When it does associate, it fetches an IP address but no data gets transmitted.

Thus, it might even be a mac80211 problem.

Thanks!
