Does anyone know whether the DWL-122 locks up under Windows and if it
doesn't, why it doesn't?

The following written in total ignorance of how network drivers
operate!... I don't suppose there's any way the driver could pause its
handling of network traffic while it deals with a control message? I'm
guessing not as this all has to be handled in real time. Just a
thought.
