Just an addition to the above.  When the ath driver temporily halts
the network activity:

	> wiconfig ath0 -D
	scanning ...
	No APs available

even though I am in the same room as the Wi/Fi access point and less
than 4 meters away.  And during that time, the access point is okay,
since my Wi/Fi enabled PDA still has net access and reports a 100%
link quality with my access point.

Any ideas why this network freezing is happening?  It is starting to
get very annoying.

Thanks in advance.
Alicia.
