Public bug reported: I have a Linksys WMP300N Wireless-N PCI Adapter (EU-model) with an Atheros AR5416 chipset. If I try to connect to the wireless network, from a Jaunty LiveCD, the computer instantly freezes. Problems with these chipset are present since Hardy, where using the SVN Madwifi drivers allowed me to connect to my wireless Lan, though I experienced frequent lock-ups of the system.
