Hi,

I get this a lot:

Aug 22 12:18:40 laptop kernel: ath0: link state changed to DOWN
Aug 22 12:18:48 laptop kernel: ath0: link state changed to UP
Aug 22 12:49:49 laptop kernel: ath0: link state changed to DOWN
Aug 22 12:49:56 laptop kernel: ath0: link state changed to UP


FreeBSD laptop.example.org 7.2-STABLE FreeBSD 7.2-STABLE #0: Mon May 25
20:35:50 EDT 2009     dan@laptop.example.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/LAPTOP
 amd64


ath0@pci0:3:0:0:        class=0x020000 card=0x058a1014 chip=0x1014168c

    vendor     = 'Atheros Communications Inc.'
    device     = 'AR5212 Atheros AR5212 802.11abg wireless'
    class      = network
    subclass   = ethernet

Looking into /var/log/messages:

FWIW, I'm running wpa as well.

Anything I should look into?
