No, there's no general problem.  I just cooked current wireless-dev
everything and am running it on this Compaq nx7400 with a 3945 chip, it
has just sent 100,000 packetspams while pinging warmcat.com over an
associated connection, the injections verified on another box with a zd1211.

If I run NetworkManager though, it deassociates me after ~60 injections.
 With NM turned off it is fine.

BTW NetworkManager-0.6.5-7.fc7 also still tries to do its thing with
thinking the virtual interface is a second physical device, pushes it
into Managed, presents it as a second device on the UI, etc.  NM should
check and see if the network interface resolves to the same wiphy down
/sys and not do those things to virtual interfaces not in Managed already.

One thing though... I am associated on a WPA network when I run these
tests... is that the case for Robert I wonder?
