8-) sorry, i used the wrong term "band":
(fast) changing between b and g rates are the problem.

you can easily reproduce, when you force this by:

iw dev $WIFIDEV set bitrates legacy-2.4 11 12

("use only b-rate 11 and g-rate 12")
So minstrel will happily change/try both, wifi will stop.
The same with:

iw dev $WIFIDEV set bitrates legacy-2.4 5.5 6

bye, Bastian
