I have the same problem in 6.3 rc6 & rc7, don't know wipe can fix it in rc7 or 
not, because I upgrade from rc6 without wipe.

Yes IT DOES. With or without wipe it just keeps going on and off again and 
again...

Ok. Let's start being productive, because I'm the biggest interested in this 
getting to work properly. I might even write some code, but I'm a Java 
programmer and I don't think that could be helpful here :(. Here's your logcat. 
Looking forward to help as much as I can

Yop, Here is mine...

I made comment in the file corresponding to what happens/I see during the 
logcat.  They look like this:
******************************************************
*                                                    *
*     Starting the first connection/reconnection     *
*                                                    *
******************************************************

I was doing nothing else but reading news on the web (and pressing menu once to 
go out from sleep)

Thank you.

A volunteer is needed to analyze the logs.

Any update in analyzing the logs? This is the most frustrating bug on rc7...

I have very similar logcat as nobbo. It's still the same since I upgraded from 
6.1-rc5 to 6.3-rc7 WITH WIPE! Very frustrating, nearly unusable for IMs... I 
think the priority should be set to High because it seems many people won't use 
6.3-rc7 with this bug (see http://forum.openetna.com/index.php?topic=773.0).

I've been affected by this bug on a GW620, updated to KH9200 with a korean 
firmware.
Here's my experience:

- while trying to connect to a fast 802.11g network on an RTL 8186 chipset, 
without distance or low signal problems (I have a fairly complex setting at 
home, with multiple access points working as repeaters or in WDS mode), the 
smartphone presented those problems constantly disconnecting and trying to 
reconnect again without success;

- Changed the wi-fi settings, to fixed IP address. The cell "connected" for a 
brief period and disconnected after about 15 to 30 seconds. A desktop running 
'ping' showed no answer from the cell phone. The pattern 
connect-disconnect-reconnect was repeated a couple times until the wi-fi 
interface was automatically turned off by the android interface;

- When trying to turn on wi-fi again, got an error and it remained on "off" 
state. A new trial and was presented with a kernel panic. Had to remove the 
battery and reboot android;

- I  have an old 802.11b access point, a Netgear WGR613VAL. The cell phone 
connected to this AP without a single problem!

Maybe it is a small kernel flaw or even it's a bug in the firmware running on 
some access points.
