Bug Description

During installation of Edgy Beta, my netgear wg111v2 usb wlan adapter was not found, but after logging in and looking in the "system->administration->network" section of gnome, I was very surprised that there was obviously a wlan-device present.
I entered the correct values and it worked at once.
I get an ip-adress via dhcp and everything seems to be fine....
Until I do anything via the wlan-connection. Wether it is an "aptitude update" or loading a webpage. After a few seconds my computer completely freezes and I have to press the reset-button. :-((
I found similar bug where the system crashes right at the point where it gets an ip, but here it´s a bit different, since my system only crashes when I try to put traffic on my wg111.
