Check iwconfig, if power management is on:

Code: Select all

sudo sed -i 's/3/2/' /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/default-wifi-powersave-on.conf
Reboot

well, wouldn't you know it. The problem magically has solved itself today... connected within 30 seconds of being turned on. If I turn off the wifi interface via command line and turn it back on, it connects fairly quickly...oh well. thanks for the help
