           Summary: prism54 stops sending/receiving if the card is running a
                    long time
           Product: prim54
           Version: 1.0.2.2
          Platform: ia32
        OS/Version: Linux 2.4
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Device Driver
        AssignedTo: prism54-devel@prism54.org
        ReportedBy: babel42@t-online.de


I'm using the prism54 driver on a router that is running 24h a day. Since the
driver is now stable and there a not so frequent updates the prism54 drivers is
running several days without rebooting/reloading. After a few days (1-4 days)
the card stop sending/receiving any data. If this happens an iwconfig ethX times
out. Sometimes an iwpriv ethX reset is enough to make the card working again.
Most off the times I need to do an ifconfig down, rmmod prism54, insmod prism54
and ifconfig ethX cycle to get the card working again. And sometimes I even need
to power off the router (a hard reset is not enough) to get the card working
again. The card is configured to run in managed mode and the AP for the card is
only 12 hours a day available.

The problem happens with driver 2004-02-04 and 2004-02-16. Not I have updated to
driver 2004-02-22.
