Thanks. I finally got around to testing it. I'm mostly using an Atheros card, nowadays. Though I have to hotswap it to get past the BIOS. Your patch fixes all the reliably reproducible panics. I can scan for wireless networks and it yields the available networks. I can connect to a network and use it. There is no package loss, I'm currently stress-testing the connection, and it appears to be reliable. Now the downside. If I turn the network down and bring it up again it turns blind. An "ifconfig wlan0 list scan" will yield nothing and I cannot connect to a network. So I can use it only once. Unloading the module in between does not help either, so I have to reboot if I want to use it again. What kind of data are you interested in? Dmesg? Anything else? Regards -- A: Because it fouls the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting. Q: What is the most annoying thing on usenet and in e-mail?
