Sounds like noise to me. Check out your neighbourhood for interfering channels (you can do so for example by scanning with http://netstumbler.com/ for other accesspoint). Also other devices can interfere with wireless that won't be listed with netstumbler (like for example wireless home video transmitters; Check your environment for devices that might cause noise). Also maybe the wireless card of the client that is having issues is just crappy as another one works.

I can no longer get an IP from the wireless. Again, the AP connects fine but dhcp will not give me an IP. I tried with my laptop and it didn't work then i moved it closer and it gave me an address so I'm assuming is a range issue. However everything suggests that the range is very good to excellent. I walked farther away with my laptop and got an IP but the connections timed out several times when I tried browsing the internet. Again any suggestions would be appreciated. Btw, this is the card I'm using. It is an Atheros chipset.

I would still like to know what was happening but if no one knows I'll be happy it works for now. :-) thanks for the quick help Scott. Let's just say there where some pretty obvious bugs with non ath cards.
