Description
I am running hrev47380 on an Asus EeePC 901 with the built-in Ralink WiFi adapter. After selecting a WPA/WPA2 network to connect to from the deskbar network icon, a dialog opens that lets me enter the network password. I enter the correct password and press ok. The network adapter is now "configuring" the connection.
After a few seconds the network password dialog opens again. I re-confirm the password (which is now shown) with OK and wpa_supplicant crashes (see attached debug log). Sometimes the aforementioned dialog opens a few times (every time I press OK) until the crash finally occurs. The network adapter stays in mode "Configuring".

Just wanted to give an update. The bug as described above still persists in hrev49173, but the crashes after trying to connect a few times seem to occur less often (I think).
Every time when trying to connect, in the Network preferences the status of the ralinkwifi/0 changes to "connected (---)" and a notification comes up saying "Configuring". After a couple of seconds it goes back to "disconnected".
I am attaching some crash reports. Is there any other information (maybe some wifi supplicant log somewhere) that I could attach?

Another update, still hrev49173 but with a newer (and apparently less broken) WIFI router: With the new router using WPA2 there is no repeated password dialogue and also no crash. However, there still seems to be a problem in the background that keeps the connection in the "Configuring" stage for some time (probably 2-3 minutes). Then, the connection is shown as "Ready" but the network doesn't work. I am attaching the syslog -- it looks like a repeating problem with DHCP.

The bug is still active in hrev52044; I'm seeing exactly what christof described in his latest comment (on an Eee Pc 901).

That is a different issue; probably #13789. Closing as fixed then.
In my case, (EEE901) it says "Configuring" and after 5 or 10 minutes it confirms that the link has been established, but then no such link is established. It doesn't work. I don't have more data to hand at the moment, though, so sorry if it's not much help...
This did work before (not sure in which revision it stopped working - I guess I could find out with a spare afternoon of git bisecting but I can't afford the time right now)
