Constant disconnecting and reconnecting with WPA2 enterprise wifi. Any available solution?

I know it can't be the wifi because as recent as yesterday on Mavericks everything was fine. Now after the update it constantly disconnects and reconnects as much as a few times per five minutes! I've read on Reddit other people are having similar problems. Hopefully Apple fixes this soon.

MacBook Air, OS X Yosemite (10.10)

Looking at the Console.app logs, it seems that the machine decides to bounce between two APs:
