Re: NDISulator crashness.

My experience over the past few weeks with a BCM4306 in an Acer 1714 has
been to get crashes only when the network is stressed, but not every time.

Aditionally, only the Linksys driver for the PC-Card version of their
implementation has been picking up settings from the AP correctly - but
haven't had time to play with this properly or do testing.
