Thanks for testing. I cannot help you with connectivity, etc. as I still have 
not gotten the newest 
versions of bcm43xx-mac80211 to associate with my AP. In the Kismet dumps taken 
from my second 
laptop sitting very close to the first, I see that the AP only ACK's about 1/4 
of the transmissions. 
This is very likely a signal strength issue.

I'll formalize the machine-check patch and send it to John and Michael.

Larry
