Marcel,

	First, let me thank you for your patience with my questions!  Now, for the 
readers of this list, I'll let you know the secret to fixing this problem, at 
least for my setup:

	I downloaded the kernel patch from your website (patch-2.4.25-mh3.gz), saved 
by .config, did a 'make mrproper', restored the .config, rebuilt the kernel, 
rebooted and... and that fixed my problems.  I run a Gentoo system with a 
'vanilla' 2.4.25 kernel, so the patch for the toplevel Makefile failed, but 
that didn't matter since it only affected the 'EXTRAVERSION' macro, which the 
vanilla kernel does not set.  

	Since I applied that patch and rebuilt the kernel, I've been surfing the web, 
listening to streaming media on my iPaq, etc for the past hour without a 
single disconnect!  Outstanding!  Before I patched, I couldn't do anything 
like this for more than 5 minutes before I would get the error that required 
removal of the usb dongle.  Anyone experiencing this particular problem 
should try that patch out before giving up.  

Best Wishes

Richard
