Some time ago I reported a similar problem to this mailinglist,
concerning some laptops trying to communicate without AP. Sometimes I
have the problem it just "doesn't work" without bringing any errors. It
just keeps claiming there is no other station...

I "solved" this with a small shellscript that just reloads and restarts my
interface. Most times it works then.
