Hello,

I modified the sources (I forgot two things to get WME working, I hope
it's all ;-)...)
The three .h and .c files are here: http://zulzul.free.fr/wpi/

For your problem, I don't see, I've just trying with a cvs-current
without problem and nobody told me about a similar problem.
Do you use WEP in BSS mode ? or something else ?
For MPACPI, I don't see how ACPI can make these problems, but can you
try with MP only ?
(I can't test with MPACPI, only MP, because with ACPI my pci-e ports
aren't recognized, probably a DSDT problem...)
You can try to define WPI_DEBUG and modify wpi_debug in if_wpi.c to
see when the problems happen.
