when i "up" ndis0, i do see three of :

 ndis0: set filter failed: 6

but then the interface is up and i am able to funtion on my wireless
network as expected (ping local and remote hosts).

i get approximately 15-30 seconds and then my system locks up, no
keyboard...nothing.  power cycle is the only remedy.  no logs of what is
going on that i can see.

the very first time i got ndis0 up, i managed to connect to a neighbors
(shh) ap and i did not notice a problem, could of been chance...not
sure.  cant seem to force an ssid other than my own at this time.

any ideas on the lock up?  where to look or add in debugging?
