Subject:   ath0 doesn't associate with AP

Hi,

I've encoutered interesting behavior of ath card with Linksys WAP-54g
acting as a wireless repeater that doesn't broadcast SSID. The ath0
device doesn't want to associate with it with the following debug
messages when debugging is turned on via sysctl:

(...device scans channels though it is set to channel 6 via ifconfig...)
