ath0 lost connection!

Hi there.  
    I have got running a PCI atheros  wireless card  on b/g  in hostap 
mode and connecting 33 clients. for some razon all the customers lost 
the traffic, (the wireless cards has connection but dosen't send and 
recive any thing). When I login on the Freebsd hostap all looks happy 
but I can't ping any customer, so all start to work again if I restart 
the PC, I tried with a different harware and in differents modes 11b and 
11g, but still same thing. I have installed the last driver versions, 
less the if_ath_pci.c 
<http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/dev/ath/if_ath_pci.c> I 
using the version 1.5 and I see the 1.6 this morning (someone know if 
update this fix the problem).
thanks!!


My setting is very simple:
bridge option on the kernel.

rc.conf
# Network Card rl0 #
ifconfig_rl0="inet 202.49.94.22  netmask 255.255.255.0"
defaultrouter="202.49.94.254"

# Wireless Card ath0 #
ifconfig_ath0="inet up ssid default channel 6 media autoselect mode 11b 
mediaopt hostap"
