Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):
There is a difference in the firmware. The wifi driver reports the
revisions of things inside the chip as it powers up. The reports are
printed into the kernel log (dmesg). Here is the only difference between
the two cards:
`old card: wifi0: mac 10.2 phy 6.1 radio 10.2` [[BR]]
`new card: wifi1: mac 10.3 phy 6.1 radio 10.2`
My guess is that there is a bug in the 10.2 MAC firmware that causes this
problem.
