strange: I was doing pkgsrc stuff (compiling for hours) on this 
connection, so tons of messages were continously flowing and the 
connection was not stuck at all, but I was still able to use it 
interactvily (actually, I only noticed the problem as ftp was not able 
to download futher sources).

But: giving wpa_supplicant a kick through wpa_cli re-emabled new 
connections.

That happened now twice and I still find it strange, so I just thought 
it might be useful to post it here, as it might help to understand where 
the problem could be.

Cheers,

   Torsten
