If you could track down the date that the changes caused issues, that
would be great. You might try today's wi.
Do you have a cvs tree locally, or did you cvsup? If you have a local
cvs tree, you can take your July 30th kernel tree, cd to sys/dev/wi
and type cvs update -PAd -D 2002/07/18 (build the kernel, test it),
then repeat for each day between the 18th and the 30th. Don't know
how to do that with cvsup.
The only thing that changed between those dates are related to the
hostap stuff. 1) not putting it into promisc mode in hardware when in
hostap.
