Ok. Did some further experimenting. I remembered having an Thomson st121g USB WLAN stick and tried that (Prism chipset). With the same distro and config it works fine using minstrel or pid; i.e. with an MTU of 1500 no problems whatsoever. If I bring the box down and use my zd1211 stick instead (some distro/config) and boot it, it doesn't work with any MTU > 500 using pid or minstrel.
So this must be some zd1211rw driver issue. It isn't the slackware setup and not the hardware; i.e. not the embedded box since the st121g works fine on it and not the zd1211 stick since I used three separate sticks (from three different manufacturers: icidu, msi and cc&c) and they all have the same problem. Any further clues? BTW; the svn for the zd1211rw driver shows that the latest version is 3 years old?
