1) why does a band change (can be seen through minstrel) is a problem?

Because IIRC b43 doesn't support anything other than 2.4GHz at all.

It's not a change between 2.4 and 5 GHz.
Wifi stops working if the bitrate changes between 11b (1, 2, 5.5, 11) and 11g (6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, 54) rates

So if we tell the system to only use 11g rates, wifi doesn't stop.

Andi,

Rates for 11g include 1, 2, 5.5, and 11, as well as 6, 9, ... What you really want to say is that it fails when it switches between CCCK and OFDM rates.

What chip is in your WRT54G?
