[Madwifi-devel] Mandrake 9.2: system freezes

[Zeev L. <zee...@gm...>]

I'm using a D-Link G520 card on Linux Mandrake 9.2; The card works fine,
however this machine is on 24/7, and given some time, one of these
things happens:

1. The connection goes down with no outside intervention. To bring
  it back up, I need to ifdown ath0 then ifup ath0. I have a script
  running on the background that pings my router every so often.
  The script will do ifdown/ifup to work around this problem.

2. The system just freezes. Hard reset is needed to get around that.

I'm getting about one freeze in 24 hours, and lots of connection drops.

Also, I found that if I turn off the router, and then turn it back on, syst=
em
freeze is almost certain.

I'm using a fairly recent CVS snapshot (a couple of weeks old).

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks
Zeev
