I will keep and eye on this, bu all seems good and working fine now.
Okay, I got another trace :-(

NetworkManager asked for the password (which was already set and
printed at the input box, I didn't have to type it again) and
reconnected fine but it logged the trace at /var/log/messages.

See attached files.
The WARNING message is preceded by a cfg80211 message regarding
world regulatory domain. I suspect there is a relatio, but not sure
what it is. Regarding channels 12 and 13 I will come up with a fix
today and send you the patch to try.
The trace is related to handling a disconnection, which will also
trigger a reprocessing of the regulatory rules. The warning and the
regulatory message share a common cause, but I don't think there's a
direct relationship between them.

This also seems to indicate that by the time either of these messages
appears the connection with the AP is already in the process of being
dropped. I don't think the regulatory messages give any cluse as to why
the connection was dropped. I suppose the warning might but I don't
know.
