Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):

 My problems with the 5212 are much less severe than most people's here
 (SuSE 10.2, 0.9.3.3, talking to a WHR-G125 running DD-WRT v24rc1 at 56mW
 xmit, 40 feet across my house):

 I get occasional loss of association to my AP; sometimes it can auto-
 reassociate... sometimes I have to force it manually through
 networkmanager, and just occasionally, it won't sync up for a while.

 I've tried the suggested

 iwpriv ath0 bgscan 0 ff 0 burst 0 protmode 0

 and so far it hasn't dropped on me since, though I don't know if that's
 data yet.

 I cannot connect at *all*, though, to my office wifi, a Belkin running
 WEP128 (or, indeed, any WEP128 AP).  Given the good results people seem to
 be seeing with SVN, can anyone make a projection as to when 0.9.4 will be
 pinched off?

 I see that all 0.9.5 tickets are closed on the roadmap, but only 3/15 for
 0.9.4, does that mean that we'll jump directly to .5 when the .4 tickets
 close?  :-)
