Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager

When connecting to wireless networks with multiple access points with
the same SSID, the nm daemon repeatedly tries to associate.  Generally
the connection will only last a minute or two.  Both the nm-applet and
knetworkmanager (the new kde4 version) front ends have the same issue.

The syslog reads as follows:

But subsequent DNS lookups fail.  Tried removing and re-inserting the
ath5k module, restarting the NetworkManager daemon, etc...  Clicking
connect on the network will reconnect, only to roam to (none) (none)
later.

Running the latest karmic packages.
