wpa_supplicant empties routing table

Hi,

I have a PowerBook G4 running F8. The wireless network card (BCM4306 using b43 driver) is configured with wpa_supplicant and works with the access point etc. However when I restart wpa_supplicant, the routing tables get emptied. Any ideas why, or how I can stop that from happening? Eg

Before restart:

Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 wlan0 169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 wlan0 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.254 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 wlan0

After restart:

Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 wlan0


Restarting the network returns the correct routing tables, but restarting the network means I need to restart wpa_supplicant or otherwise I don't have a connection to the access point. Catch 22!

My wpa supplicant conf file looks like this:

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=wheel

network={
   ssid="atmosphere"
   psk="PRIVATE"
   key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
   proto=WPA
}
