I have been experiencing the same problem. I have an Apple MacBook Pro 17" and
installed dapper on it. I also noticed it was network related and perhaps
triggered by wpa_supplicant/knetworkmanager combo. This led me to find this
thread.
Unlike others, my lspci gives me slightly different numbers
Soren,
I do not understand the changes you did when I installed a new
version of madwifi, it removed all the new_ath_* drivers and instead
installed the ath_* in their place. So why did you modify NetworkManager
and wpa_supplicant?
I took the subversion madwifi and it did not work, as it woul
I downloaded and installed madwifi-ng-r1686-20060715 it created ath_* so
do I need the patch or not? At least now, not using NetworkManager and
no wpa, the connection does not die like it did before.

Still as soon as NetworkManager starts it gets the wifi in a weird state
and never connects. I have to kill NetworkManager, unload the modules
and reload them to be able to connect manually. Soren, do you have a
package of what you did that I can install?

Soren,
Thanks it now works. But it is subject to an annoying behavior that others have
observed. NetworkManager continuously disconnect and reconnects. Apparently the
way to get it fixed is stop NetworkManager from continuously scanning...
How does one do that?
