Is the AP disconnecting you? Are you > running NM on the side? I am not running NM. Just plain wpa_supplicant and dhclient. However I do have a suspicion that this is faulty firmware on my card and that this messes things up. I had been doing testing with WiMAX and I run into some issues and was speculating about interoperability. I started testing with unreleased firmware. That would indeed explain why I don't see this kind of issues with any other dongle I attached to the laptop. I will reboot into a kernel that uses the official firmware.
