Hi Andrew, Thank you for replying. I'm a bit disconcerted by this problem since nobody seems to meet it but me.

Interestingly, it seems that the interrupt storm happens while if_iwi module is trying to load the firmware and stops as soon as if_iwi gives up. If you have any other idea, please let me knom. I am willing to test whatever you might deem useful. Best regards, -- Jeremie Le Hen < jeremie at le-hen dot org >< ttz at chchile dot org >
