5.2/5.3 wi0 "2mbit bug"

[Matt Sealey]

I read the first link; but when I looked in the files, there is
no field frmhdr and the code does not flow the way the article
suggest (wi_start doesn't call that function..)

The patch looks better, I will back up the source and try and
apply it. We will see..
