Maybe I had a similar situation where if_ath.c:ath_tx_timeout() was regularly called by a netdevice transmit timeout and dumped its registers. It turned out that the Atheros card (WAG511) didn't join my 802.11b access point, because the AP had WEP enabled, while the card had not. The dump went away when I switched WEP on for the card, but the connection failed for other reasons, I had no time to look into yet. /J=F6rg |
