Since my initial thumbs-up for the fix in backports, I have found two small issues. First, after booting from cold the wireless network does not always get connected and I have to unload and reload the rt61pci module. Also, after resuming the wireless network never reconnects and I have unload/reload the module.

Second, the activity indicator light on my card stays on even when there is no network traffic.

Those issues aside, and once I have a connection, I have had no more kernel panics and the connection remains 100% stable. Its a shame that others are still getting panics, perhaps there are some differences in the rt61 hardware that we are all running, e.g. some PCMCIA, PCI others integrated in laptops, and the issues arise there?
