All protocols are affected ping, whatever lies below telnet and http
through lynx was dead as well.

Ok, I'll try this version out a bit first with heavy p2p-transfers. If
it survives I might stick with it (2.6.28-rc6-wl died after awhile)
otherwise I'll go back to my all time favourite 2.6.27-rc5.

Wicd manager seems to keep a static list of APs in the environment I've
already scanned, so the issue is normally of no concern.
