Just tried a 300MB scp; got up to 37MB @ 715KB/s and then stalled.  I
think my card is somehow "special" or the controller sucks (Ricoh
RL5c476 II) or something.  I'll try to find another machine with a CF
slot.  No amount of ifconfig or iwconfig magic will help it, the card
accepts a TX packet with if_cs_send_data() and then apparently never
sends an interrupt to say the TX is done.  The driver then does the RSSI
thing to poke the firmware, which of course times out, and then all is
lost.

Maybe I have dodgy firmware?  Can you point me to some known working
stuff?
