I experienced this error yesterday but have been having wireless issues today without this message.

Although I can see from /var/log/syslog that it is disconnecting and reconnecting, if I disable ipv6 with the following sysctl settings it has so far prevented the GUI network manager from going into a infinite reconnecting loop -

net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1
net.ipv6.conf.default.disable_ipv6 = 1
net.ipv6.conf.lo.disable_ipv6 = 1

I should say that I am not a Linux expert so this has just been through 'nothing ventured nothing gained' testing on my own machine. I noticed some warnings about ipv6 and I know I don't use it so it made sense to see whether disabling it helped.
