Hello Adrian,

Yes, this always appear. In chronological order, this can be described as
follows:

1. system reboot
2. for several hours, all clients can successfully associate and works fast
3. transfer rate is reduced and there are increasing messages:

ath0: stuck beacon; resetting (bmiss count 4)
ath0: stuck beacon; resetting (bmiss count 4)
ath0: stuck beacon; resetting (bmiss count 4)
ar5416StopDmaReceive: dma failed to stop in 10ms
AR_CR=0x00000024
AR_DIAG_SW=0x42000020
ath0: stuck beacon; resetting (bmiss count 4)
ath0: stuck beacon; resetting (bmiss count 4)
ath0: stuck beacon; resetting (bmiss count 4)

4. finally connections are interrupted and customers can no longer be
 associated
