Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):
I'm not sure it's a problem with the kernel itself. I am using multiple
computers with the madwifi driver, compiled from source.
Kernel 2.6.25
Trunk revision 3746
Exhibits stability problems, as described above.
Kernel 2.6.22
Trunk revision 3745
Exhibits stability problems, as described above.
Kernel 2.6.22
Trunk revision 3316
Runs stably (relatively so).
I find that "ifconfig ath? down; ifconfig ath? up" does not give a
functioning interface, but a reboot is needed.
On machines with the stability problem, pinging an AP sometimes gives very
long round trip times ~1000 ms, versus the more normal ~1 ms.
Can someone indicate what kind of debugging information I should be
looking for? The kernel message buffer (dmesg) does not show anything
useful.
