When sending large amounts of data, I get packet corruption.  This
happens with both station firmware 8.10, 8.42.1, and 6.6.1:

wi0 at pcmcia1 function 0: Avaya Communication, Avaya Wireless PC Card, Version 01.01
wi0: 802.11 address 00:02:2d:21:bd:93
wi0: using Lucent Technologies, WaveLAN/IEEE
wi0: Lucent Firmware: Station (8.42.1)
wi0: supported rates: 1Mbps 2Mbps 5.5Mbps 11Mbps

wi0 at pcmcia0 function 0: Lucent Technologies, WaveLAN/IEEE, Version 01.01
wi0: 802.11 address 00:60:1d:f1:46:87
wi0: using Lucent Technologies, WaveLAN/IEEE
wi0: Lucent Firmware: Station (6.6.1)
wi0: supported rates: 1Mbps 2Mbps 5.5Mbps 11Mbps


Here's a tcpdump, taken on the outgoing router (on the other side of
the wireless hub) -- a trace made on a linux box using wireless, it
sees the same corruption.  Note that the linux machine can transmit
large files just fine.
