Hello.
I've got a laptop with the above WiFi card.
I just upgraded to 14.3 in order to see if stability and/or speed could
improve.
For stability, time will tell.
As for stability...
Today I rebooted the AP I was connected to: with 14.2 probably I would
have experienced a panic; with 14.3 however I was simply disconnected.
After a while, all the other devices were back online, but my notebook
was still without any WiFi association.
I tried "service wpa_supplicant restart", but it didn't help; so I
issued "service netif restart" and everything hanged.
I tried typing some DDB commands without seeing anything and I ended up
with the following backtrace:

I don't have the sources available now, as I'm out of office, but I'll
give it a shot at getting better info when I can.
Please let me know if you want me to check anything specifically.
bye & Thanks
