Definitely not a network-manager issue. I get the same results (below) when manually using shell wireless-tools to bring the interface up and connect. (iwlist scan, iwconfig, etc)

Hardy Heron, 386 (on a VIA PicoITX CPU), NETGEAR USB wg111v2, without NDISwrapper. Networkin comes up fine out-of-the-box -- but when any load is put on the interface it dies; iwconfig/ifconfig looks normal, but no bits flow. iwlist/iwconfig again, it works.

I can ping for (many minutes); but 'apt-get update' trying to pull in new kernel (etc, large download) repeatably causes failure. Bring up again, ping fine, etc.
