The latest is in wireless-testing, but that will be difficult to clone as long as kernel.org is out of commission. In addition, there are two patches that were sent on 9/3, but have not yet been incorporated due to the k.o problems. They are attached. >> > > I'm using kernel-3.1.0-0.rc3.git0.0.fc16.src.rpm from Fedora 16. > I'll apply the patches you provided and test a bit later today. I tried the patches. They do not make a difference. Actually, that is not surprising, because the first patch relates to 802.11n but I am using 802.11g, and the second patch has to do with switching networks, but I am coming up cold on this network. I should receive some USB dongles with different chipsets tomorrow. Hopefully one of them will be better behaved. But if there is more data I can gather to help figure this out, I am happy to do so.
