Subject:   Orinoco Silver and ISA adapter losing network
Message-ID:  <20010913123055.N66256@slappy.plambert.net>

I recently (about two weeks ago) upgraded a FreeBSD system to 4-STABLE,
and was hoping it'd fix problems I'm having with the orinoco card in it,
using the Lucent ISA adapter.

The wireless network works perfectly after boot, for about 2-48 hours.
Then, the machine falls off the network, and nothing I've tried on
console gets it back.  (I've done everything short of ejecting and
re-inserting the card...)

A tcpdump sees traffic on the wireless network.  The _card_ must be working.
But sending packets fails (a ping says "sendto failed" or something similar)
and so nothing actually works.

I've tried everything I can think of, and I'm out of ideas.  Unfortunately,
the box is in a remote location, and so I don't have easy access to it.
Any suggestions for troubleshooting would be greatly appreciated!
