Comment 1 for bug 299641

i have similar problem with atheros 5007eg.
i'm not sure if the problem was ever not present, however it may matter that i'm using a third party driver from madwifi site (see http://madwifi-project.org/ticket/1192 ).
reloading the drivers does solve the problem in my case, as well.
i'll try compiling the latest snapshotof the madwifi drivers to see if it changes anything.
