I could not get any host to associate with station firmware 1.03.04 (on 
a Prism 2.5 card). I upgraded to 1.04.09 and hosts were able to 
associate, but under heavy load the card would end up getting locked up, 
so I have had to drop back to a Prism 2 card for now. 1.03.04 on Prism 2 
cards (in particular, my MA401) seems to be good.
