I have this same problem. Wired ethernet works fine under linux. Wireless worked fine with a type-G network. Type-N works for a short time and the the system stalls with a blinking caps LED.
I can dual-boot to Windows(tm) XP/Pro Tablet PC edition and both wired and wireless type-N work just fine so I doubt that this is a hardware problem. Added a new type-N access point at home as a present to me and this trouble raised its head. The box is a D-Link DIR-655. Previous box was Linksys WRT54GS. A search of the net turns up loads of "bugs" and other complaints with these same symptoms for all sorts of distros and kernels and mostly intel drivers. I have no idea how to get any details about what is happening. I'm told that the blinking LED means "kernel panic" but I don't find any sort of record in /var/logs of a crash or dump or log entries.
