I am able to make calls, utilize PTT (Push To Talk) as long as I do it
before the Spectralink sends the ps-poll packet. As soon as the
Spectralink phones sends the ps-poll packet, communication to/from the
device fails.
This works fine with a Cisco AP. I can provide ethereal captures using a
monitor mode VAP for both the Cisco and the madwifi AP.
