Try 2.6.7-bk6 and if no problems occur then this has been fixed. If not
please submit a bug report. Please note that mgt timeout is a known bug.
This could be related to bug 88. 

http://prism54.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=88

It is actually currently affecting WPA too but I'll send out another
e-mail regarding that.
