ath: tx-rate stops adapting after a while

[Adrian Chadd]

Well, since you're having problems with the netbsd box but not other
stuff, TX is 'working'; the question is whether:

* somehow the card is incorrectly transmitting OFDM rates (11g) that
some things can pick up and some can't, or
* the netbsd device can't handle OFDM that you're transmitting and
only handles CCK rates correctly.

Have you tried this netbsd station against some other AP?

What hardware is in the netbsd box?
