I have an USB wireless card: Netgear WG111v2. It is reported in
syslog as:
usb 4-2: Product: NETGEAR WG111v2
usb 4-2: Manufacturer: NETGEAR WG111v2
usb 4-2: SerialNumber: 000FB5D51ECA
phy1: Selected rate control algorithm 'pid'
phy1: hwaddr 00:0f:b5:d5:1e:ca, RTL8187vB (default) V1 + rtl8225
usbcore: registered new interface driver rtl8187
On ifconfig up, the card always locks up two very different systems: a
relatively modern P4 desktop and P-MMX laptop with UHCI (ancient Compaq
Armada 1592DT) which has an OHCI.
The connection is not stable and sometimes the card just stops
talking to anything outside: the connection is not dropped, but
nothing works (no ping replies). Up/down interface does not help.
Aside from that there were no ill effects noticed.
I tried 2.6.27-rc7 and -rc8 with no difference.

Thank you for reporting it.
I'm not currently working on drivers now, sorry, but I hope someone
involved in linux wireless might investigate your problem.
Thanks
Andrea
