Unable to connect to WiFi network #284

Description

After weeks of using elementaryOS successfully, all of a sudden it became impossible to connect to my home's WiFi network. As a desperate move, I reinstalled elementaryOS, and everything went back to a working state... Until a few days later, I find myself again unable to connect wirelessly to the Internet. The network is correctly identified by the settings panel, but connection attempts never get anywhere.
