I'm running BenH's 2.4.6 from about a week ago, and I get similar
behavior... *eventually* I find the destination and connect or
whatever, but it takes quite a few seconds.
Removing the driver stack (airport, orinoco, hermes) and reinserting
the modules fixes the problem for me... Until I suspend and resume a
few times, at which point I'll have to remove/reinsert again.
I know that's not a *fix*, but it should get you working again in the
meantime. :-)
