it now cycles through association -> storming -> age with a different 
output right after assoc:

ipw2200: U ipw_associate_network associating: 'Al' 00:11:22:33:44:55
ipw2200: I ipw_rx_notification AUTH_SEQ_1
ipw2200: I ipw_rx_notification disassociated: 'Al' 00:11:22:33:44:55
ipw2200: U __ipw_send_cmd SCAN_REQUEST_EXT command (#26) 96 bytes: 0x00000023

Any ideas?
