My laptops (Thinkpad A20m, R50) talk to my wireless router using Dick Smith / 
TP-Link PCMCIA cards (Atheros chipset).    Usually the Status light stays 
steady and the Activity light almost never blinks.

But I just installed Debian 6 Squeeze and the Activity and Status lights flash 
together, full brightness, at about 1-second intervals.   The card works 
fine, but the steady blinking is a bit distracting.   

Has anyone experienced this?    Is this a bad sign?
