Indeed, bad firmware rev for hostap. 1.5.6 is the most recent I can
find that works. Seems to work reasonably well as a base station
(using it now). Did they change hostap stuff between 1/5/6 and 1.7.2 ?

I tried the client at 1.5.6 and was seeing performace issues - jittery
connections intermittant bad ping times - so took the client up to;

  wi0: Intersil Firmware: Primary 1.01.01, Station 1.08.00

That with the DELAY(1); patch seems to be stable and happy.

and I'm still looking for a way to swap modes. ifconfig mediaopt really
doesn't want to let me.
