Vladimir, Sam Leffler (author of the linux driver for the atheros) mentioned to me today that it is unstable, though, he has not detailed why this is the case. Furthermore, it is not clear whether the problem lies within the binary portion or source portion of the driver, or within the firmware. At any event, you are likely right in suggesting that it is too early to use Atheros in production mode.

Fiuczynski Cc: leaf-user; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [leaf-wisp] new WISP-Dist available I would suggest it is too early to think about using Atheros in production mode. The driver is quite unstable yet, I couldn't make it run well in AP mode. Also note that atheros support is included as a separate package, which you can get from http://www.hazard.maks.net/wisp-dist/downloads/packages/ . Marc E.
