Comment(by mbletsas):

 Ashish,

 The module is left in "association blinking" mode and doesn't recover.
 The problem seems to be triggered after association and while we are
 actually trying to send/receive packets.

 It seems to be triggered by the order/timing of commands issued by
 wpa_supplicant since it manifests itself almost immediately if you try to
 associate via the user interface.

 Ricardo did various tests from the command line and it took more tries (4)
 to see the failure.

 The spectrum is busy but not that busy (we turned off most of our XOs) No
 other laptop has any trouble associating.

 More to follow.

 M.
