Comment (by mmlr):
Are you able to reproduce this issue? The implemented workflow is as
follows:
1) Try finding a stored key for the selected network and try to connect
using it
2) If the connection fails (timeout with no success notification) or there
were no stored credentials, bring up the dialog
3) Try to connect using the supplied credentials
4) When a connection is established successfully, store the credentials,
otherwise go back to 2
The wpa_supplicant is told to shut down the association attempt when the
timeout occurs, which probably is the root cause of this issue. It is
probably related to disabling/reenabling the interface in the FreeBSD
compatibility layer and might therefore also be driver specific. What
setup did you test on?
