Warner, There is some strange type of interaction between debug mode in the wi0 driver and changing channels. It seems that if I have debug turned on the driver won't pick up data on the new channel. The second I turn debug off the data starts flowing again. If debug is off the channel change works immediately. chip# ifconfig wi0 -debug *** data flows chip# ifconfig wi0 channel 8 *** data flows chip# ifconfig wi0 debug *** data flows if you are lucky chip# ifconfig wi0 channel 9 *** data stops until the -debug command chip# ifconfig wi0 -debug *** data flows again after slight pause Hhmm...
