I have been using the 'an' device throughout the 5.x series with good
results.  I am at at 5.3-Stable on my Thinkpad T30 right now.  

I am guessing your issue would be the firmware.  I had to downgrade my
firmware to get things working well.  I am current at 5.00.01.  I have
heard that slightly newer firmware versions also work, but having
anything too new will cause you problems in my experience.  5.00.01 is
still available on the Cisco site, I would suggest downgrading unless
someone gives you a better idea.
