Description drago01 2009-07-11 09:12:28 UTC

Description of problem:

Intel has released a new firmware for iwl4965 with the following changelog:

-- More graceful handling of Rx hangs (NMI)
-- More reliable scanning
-- Wait 10 seconds after association before power down
-- Reset receiver via retune after missing beacons
-- Disable TGK measurement when receiving packet
-- More reliable Tx of ACK/BA/CTS

This looks like it should fix the firmware crashes / restarts many people are seeing, so it is worth updating to it.
