Hello,

I recently started seeing these errors in /var/log/messages which
correlated with a brief outage in my wireless signal.  This error only
seemed to happen while downloading larger files for more than five
seconds:

ipw2100: Fatal interrupt. Scheduling firmware restart.

I'm running Gutsy on an older Toshiba Satellite m35, kernel
2.6.22-14-generic.  This wireless card is only capable of 802.11b and my
access point is a Linksys  WRT54GS firmware  v1.50.6. I have no
encryption on the network, just wireless MAC filtering.

Going off of what someone else mentioned, I went into the Linksys admin
and disabled Frame Burst under Wireless-->Advanced Wireless settings.
After my router restarted, the problem seemed to go away.  I'm now able
to download large files continuously without getting that error and
without any interruption to my wireless signal.
