Okay, I didn't know you were talking about the atl1 driver.  Are you 
using the
in-tree driver in 2.6.22, or the pre-merge driver on sourceforge, or the 
vendor
driver from Attansic/Atheros?

Also, can you test this again using the latest 2.6.23-rc7 kernel, with 
the atl1 driver
included in that kernel?
