Actually sometimes, it seems that doing a download, could also trigger same behavier, but this is much rareler. When I bombard the aspire one with udp packets (= TX unit doesn't work at all - maybe it sends ACKS, but I haven't tested this, then I get lower speed, don't remember what exactly, but around 1.5 MB/s, and no hangs at all). I also did another test, I manually lowered TX rate on both ends (and this does work now), and yet, I got same behavior. (ends were iwl3945 and ath5k) On the other hand, if I transfer data via router again iwl3945-ath5k) (= half of the time card doesn't work) I never see any hangs. Same hangs happen if I transfer data to wired host, my third computer. If there is anything I can test futher please ask, Also (small plug) still card hangs sometimes after resume from ram with message : 'failed to wakeup MAC' S2RAM/S2DISK doesn't help, module reload doesn't help, it will fail to load at all, since first thing it does it 'wakes up the MAC' Other that the above two bugs, everything works fine (ah forgot that I need to rewrite led code in mac80211, to make it usable, some day I do so).
