The above list of channels which can not be reset re-appers periodically, I assume in connection with background scan. They also appear during regular scans, e.g. when wpa_supplicant scans for a suitable AP. Whenever the messages appears, the connection to the currently associated AP dies (although it still appears to be associated according to ifconfig). The periodic messages disappears when bgscan is disabled on wlan0. Below is the list of channels supported by my card: # ifconfig wlan0 list chan Channel 1 : 2412 Mhz 11g Channel 48 : 5240* Mhz 11a Channel 2 : 2417 Mhz 11g Channel 52 : 5260* Mhz 11a Channel 3 : 2422 Mhz 11g Channel 56 : 5280* Mhz 11a Channel 4 : 2427 Mhz 11g Channel 60 : 5300* Mhz 11a Channel 5 : 2432 Mhz 11g Channel 64 : 5320* Mhz 11a Channel 6 : 2437 Mhz 11g Channel 100 : 5500* Mhz 11a Channel 7 : 2442 Mhz 11g Channel 104 : 5520* Mhz 11a Channel 8 : 2447 Mhz 11g Channel 108 : 5540* Mhz 11a Channel 9 : 2452 Mhz 11g Channel 112 : 5560* Mhz 11a Channel 10 : 2457 Mhz 11g Channel 116 : 5580* Mhz 11a Channel 11 : 2462 Mhz 11g Channel 120 : 5600* Mhz 11a Channel 12 : 2467* Mhz 11g Channel 124 : 5620* Mhz 11a Channel 13 : 2472* Mhz 11g Channel 128 : 5640* Mhz 11a Channel 14 : 2484* Mhz 11b Channel 132 : 5660* Mhz 11a Channel 34 : 5170* Mhz 11a Channel 136 : 5680* Mhz 11a Channel 36 : 5180* Mhz 11a Channel 140 : 5700* Mhz 11a Channel 38 : 5190* Mhz 11a Channel 149 : 5745* Mhz 11a Channel 40 : 5200* Mhz 11a Channel 153 : 5765* Mhz 11a Channel 42 : 5210* Mhz 11a Channel 157 : 5785* Mhz 11a Channel 44 : 5220* Mhz 11a Channel 161 : 5805* Mhz 11a Channel 46 : 5230* Mhz 11a Channel 165 : 5825* Mhz 11a Brix -- Henrik Brix Andersen <brix@FreeBSD.org> --zhXaljGHf11kAtnf Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (FreeBSD) Comment: GnuPG signed iEYEARECAAYFAkgORTgACgkQv+Q4flTiePjqEgCfcJtAQloWfsCg8sAoPzQeXw9z w6MAmQFkdacwLV5aul34nbXwPH/DBusJ =5Ct0 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --zhXaljGHf11kAtnf--
