atheros. SMP kernel. The AP is a Billion ADSL2+ router. It should be noted
that in every OS other than FBSD/Dragonfly ive tried - windows and linux -
it works fine.

I should also note that Sepherosa once made a patch for me that got
commited but probably got blasted away during the wlan update. Its
referenced in this thread but its no longer in Sephe's directory.

I should note that, this only improved the situtation, it did not fix it.
Connections were still dropping out, just not as often.
