I have tried every single thing I have found.
I have even tried replacing it with wicd which was an equally horrible failure
At first it was just the problem of insufficient privileges and now I can click my wifi, but it doesn't connect.
I have downgraded networkmanager
I have changed the polkit
I sincerely have no idea now.
I'm completely lost.

I am in the network group.
I have uploaded it to http://codepad.org/cILoZWMM
is there a wiki page to explain all the outputs of dmesg? It seems to solve every problem ever lol

This is only a workaround (and a guess) but try disabling ipv6.
Offline
I disabled it in all three ways
However, while I was disabling it in the /etc/dhcpcd.conf file (for good measure) I found a line that says noipv4ll
I think I'm going to delete that and put it back to see if it's disabling my ipv4.
I'll make another post in a couple seconds to say if it worked.

Nope, didn't do anything.

Is that everything? Your log seems a little sparse (missing NetworkManager stuff). From the log, it appears that you are connecting, receiving an IP address, and then disconnecting. This is another shot in the dark but try replacing dhcpcd with dhclient. Also, make sure that you have disabled the 'networking' service in /etc/rc.conf.
Offline
when I rc.d start dhclient it says ":: Daemon script dhclient does not exist or is not executable."
I will check it again, maybe it messed up while pasting.
Offline
Neither dhcpcd nor dhclient should be started by rc.d. By "try replacing dhcpcd with dhclient" I meant, "install the dhclient package and see if that fixes your problem". By default Network Manager will try dhclient first and only use dhcpcd if dhclient isn't installed. If you still can't connect (after a restart), repost your everything.log while using dhclient.

syslog-ng is in my daemons array
I believe I'm using initscripts.

There are ath5k problems for others recently; it might well be kernel related: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=139270&p=2
But in your case it seems to connect before deassociating again. If you use WEP encryption, change away from that for a test.
If you are using the latest kernel (3.3.4) and the issue remains: Another thing you can try to install the linux LTS kernel (package in core)
Offline
I use wpa2.
I don't know whether something is truncating it, but I'm not.
Should I upload it to another pastebin?
I'll do it manually instead of using curlpaste this time.
I will get the LTS kernel and tell you guys what happens as soon as I get home.
Offline
I think the paste bins can't handle such a big file.
Offline
Is there any place else I can upload it that you know of?
It's like 20 MBs

so just now, I decided to give wireless another shot.
It works.
I don't know what I did.
xD
I would still like to try and solve this for other new arch users though, if you want.
Offline
That part of the log didn't contain much relevant information. Lets just do this the correct way, upload the entire log: http://www.solidfiles.com/
Offline
It works.
I don't know what I did.
If you have not changed config, maybe a -Syu?
Offline
well it broke again. then I rebooted.
then it worked again lol
this time it produced an error "ath5k gain calibration timeout" then a reference to some MHz numbers
this error repeated itself line by line over and over until I rebooted.
I did indeed run a -Syu. But I didn't see any packages update that seemed relevant to wireless. There wasn't a kernel update or anything.
