>Description:

I did a transfer of a bigger file with scp over a wavelan connection.
Both ends are running NetBSD-current and using Orinoco solver cards.
The receiving end blocked and loged

Mar 10 21:37:26 night-owl /netbsd: wi0: device timeout
Mar 10 21:37:26 night-owl /netbsd: wi0: command timed out, cmd=0x2

and the transfer stalled. Doing ifconfig down/up fixed it and the transfer
continued. It stalled after a few seconds again (this time not logging 
anything) and another ifconfig down/up fixed it.
