<quote> wpa_supplicant writes to syslog every 2 minutes Bug Description Ubuntu 14.04 LTS wpasupplicant 2.1-0ubuntu1 wpa_supplicant is writing to syslog every couple of minutes. Example output: <snip> The message seems harmless as far as the network is concerned, meaning there is no problem with the wifi connection. But it's spamming the syslog, making it very difficult to find any other thing there, and it's generating constant writes to disk, and an unnecessarily large syslog file. </quote> I made no 'claims', I simply recommended that you file a separate bug report for connectivity issues: "For connectivity issues I recommend following <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WirelessTroubleshootingProcedure> and filing a separate bug report. My suggestion is to file another bug report regarding loss of connectivity using: <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LinuxWireless?action=show&redirect=KernelTeam%2FLinuxWireless> <https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WirelessTroubleshootingProcedure> to provide details for the developer(s). if you firmly believe that "wpa_supplicant writes to syslog every 2 minutes" is the cause of your loss of connectivity, then I'd also suggest that you add detailed information that will assist the developer(s) in resolving the issue.
