I use a NetGear WNDA3100 USB wireless dongle which is using the kernel module carl9170 as driver. It is working fine for a little while, some minutes, then it stops receiving/transmitting anything at all. If I unplug and insert it again it works fine a couple of minutes before it stops receiving/transmitting anything again. The LED is stuck on pink but not flashing blue/pink as it usually do when receiving/transmitting data. This is when using a 3.2.x version of gentoo-sources, if I use 3.1.10 of gentoo-sources it is working fine for hours but sometimes shuts down totally and the LED is off and only comes alive again if I unplug and insert it. Any ideas? BR / P-E
