Hmmm, weird. I was just about to say "Yes, I've seen this with my
Orinoco silver cards for a couple of years now, in both ibss and
access point mode", but then I ran a small test and everything
suddenly seems to work just fine with a tcpdump running (without
-p). In ibss mode that is, I can't test hostap right now.

That is what I like so much about bugs that you find in NetBSD; if you
just ignore them for long enough they tend to go away by themselves,
almost by magic... ;-) ;-)

Kind regards,
