I'm trying to use my WG511T Netgear WiFi NIC on HP nx9005 notebook,
but couldn't make it run at all.

After inserting card, I get:

Interrupt storm detected on "irq11: cbb0 cbb1+"; throttling interrupt source
ath0: <Atheros 5212> mem 0x88000000-0x8800ffff irq 11 at device 0.0 on cardbus1
ath0: Ethernet address: 00:0f:b5:26:a8:92
ath0: mac 5.9 phy 4.3 radio 4.6

After "ifconfig ath0 up", notebook freezes for 5/6 sec. spamming
console with errors:

ath0: hardware error; resetting
ath0: hardware error; resetting
ath0: hardware error; resetting
ath0: hardware error; resetting

Switching off ACPI doesn't produce this error, but card can't find
AP with "no carrier".  I would very appreciate if somebody has any
advices and tips to fix it.
    

I forgot to note, it everything happens on FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT built
on Aug 17.

   Did it work on any previous builds? My 5212 ath woks fine with a build
   from the 13th.

   This is a 3com CRPAG175.
   Why don't I see any ghz info in yours? Could a 'faulty' radio produce
   both  of your error messages, I wonder?
   Isn't there a radio on/off switch somewhere? What about ifconfig's
   txpower switch or powersave?
   Just shoot'n.
   Did this card EVER work?
