Thank you for filing this bug report and helping to make Ubuntu better.
Your syslog excerpt explains precisely why the connection times out and
authentication is denied while trying to connect: there's an error
response from the accesspoint, in the form of the "status 17" message.
I understand this is quite cryptic. Status 17 is defined as "Association
denied because AP is unable to handle additional associated STAs" in the
IEEE 802.11-2007 standard. I basically means that the authentication was
denied because the accesspoint cannot handle additional "stations" to be
connected to it. Stations are any wireless client that might try to
connect.
As a solution, the best I can offer is to suggest you contact your
network's administrators and point to this bug report as an additional
indication that the network is crowded.
Closing as Invalid since it's not a bug in Ubuntu.
Please, don't hesitate to report bugs for any further issues you may
find! :)
