There is now a native linux (proprietary) module for it but it sucks in comparision with the windows driver under ndiswrapper). Unfortunately I could not find anything useful in the logfiles to help solving this. I only know that after upgrading dhcpd and restarting the network daemon, dhcp looses contact with the wlan interface.
