Hmm you might be right about this, ath_info would really help. Problem
is we din't have such reports about nic_wakeup before, not even on
2425 (AR5007EG). In all cases (except 5416/5418) at least attach
worked ! In this case attach doesn't work at all ;-(

This might be the new 2417 chip (AR5007G), if they had faulty pci id
for 5007EG they might have done the same for 5007G (but 2417 is not
pci-express !).

Majo can you plz do what Mike said and give us a dump of ath_info tool ?

Thanx in advance...
