Hi, Just to chime in and say that I have seen device timeout messages too - the behaviour for me was (ok, maybe a bit random but...) having mounted an NFS exported /usr/src and hammering it with a buildworld. So really, I guess I can only say that I have seen this when the wireless card was under some very heavy load.
Symptoms where I would notice things just stop, it dissociates...and sure enough, on the console was an ath0: device timeout message. I was using WPA2-PSK, and the card I have is a Netgear WPN511 (Cardbus), which i think defines itself as a 5212 chip. I was running FreeBSD 6.0 with all security patches at the time. Anyways, it does appear that it can happen, and glad I am not the only one hititng it - would be interested to find out how hard you were working it when it occured though. If anoybody needs any furhter information, I will put 6.1 on my laptop and see if I can reproduce and/or retrieve anything that may help. Thanks, Alex J Burke. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
