Gaining association to such wireless access points takes five to fifteen minutes, waiting for RUN and ASSOC. Periodic connection dropping despite full-speed connectivity to the access points occurs once ASSOC is true. list scan causes firmware to crash occasionally. >How-To-Repeat: Connect to a wireless access point. >Fix: Use a previous version of FreeBSD (earlier than 7.0). >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: Responsible-Changed-From-To: freebsd-bugs->freebsd-net Responsible-Changed-By: linimon Responsible-Changed-When: Fri Oct 3 18:06:52 UTC 2008 Responsible-Changed-Why: Over to maintainer(s). http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=127826 >Unformatted:
