It may be useful to check if the AP is sending that packet.  If it does,
I would check the rate and the channel and compare them to the packets
the driver can receive.  I would also check the driver with another AP.
If it's indeed on the receiving side of the driver, a crosscheck against
the softmac driver could be helpful.

Good luck fixing it, but if it still doesn't work, I'd like to see your
patch posted anyway.
