How you detect noisy environments?
(some output from athsurvey?)
What level of noisy is acpetable in terms of athsurvey and in terms of
physicaly units? (I can use Cisco Spectrum Expert for survey, but not
simultaneously with this card).

What is ANI?

What I need to try in next time of lost traffic?
(no messages in console in this situation, nothing about "ath0: device
timeout" nor "ath0: bb hang detected (0x4), resetting").

Do I need to enable some debug?
