cipe kills our wireless link

We have a wireless internet link and one of our big customers use cipe 
to approach our network. The problem is that at random - especially 
after transfering large amount of data (few hundred megabytes through 
smb access), and only when cipe adapter is active - wireless link just 
dies. It cannot ping the access point, and the computer that it is in - 
the router (IBM pIII 450/128mb) - slows down. Running ethereal shows 
there is traffic going on on UDP port 7771 (the port cipcb0 is on), and 
that goes on even after shutting down cipcb0! If I kill eth1 (wireless 
card connected to internet) and bring it up again, everything goes back 
to normal. I really do not understand how can I still have traffic on 
port 7771 when cipe adapter is down. And the problem is really difficult 
to reproduce because it happens at random. Any suggestions? Tnx in advance.
