I just roamed and got kicked off the network.  DMESG shows:
eth1: No ProbeResp from current AP 00:19:a9:45:2f:a1 - assume out of range
eth1: No STA entry for own AP 00:19:a9:45:2f:a1
eth1: Initial auth_alg=0
eth1: authenticate with AP 00:19:a9:45:2f:a1
eth1: Initial auth_alg=0
eth1: authenticate with AP 00:19:a9:45:2f:a1
eth1: authenticate with AP 00:19:a9:45:2f:a1
eth1: authenticate with AP 00:19:a9:45:2f:a1
eth1: authentication with AP 00:19:a9:45:2f:a1 timed out
And then I noticed this in my /var/log/messages:
Dec  4 18:21:49 pgpdev NetworkManager: <WARN>  request_and_convert_scan_results(): unknown error, or the card returned too much scan info: Argument list too long 
Running:  iwlist eth1 scan | tail -20   shows:
          [snip]
          Cell 127 - Address: 00:19:A9:47:5B:32
                    ESSID:"ietf-a.1x"
                    Mode:Master
          [snip]
So, is there an AP Scan limit?
