I think there's a probable regression with: ppb1 at pci0 dev 30 function 0 "Intel 82801BAM Hub-to-PCI" rev 0xd3 pci2 at ppb1 bus 4 I have a ralink on my ThinkPad X41 that shows the same weird behavior. ral0 at pci2 dev 2 function 0 "Ralink RT2561" rev 0x00: irq 10, address 00:0d:f0:3e:6e:a0 ral0: MAC/BBP RT2561C, RF RT2527 And the same "ifconfig scan" trick is also needed if I swap the card with an Atheros minipci, so I think it's not related to a particular wireless device. No quirks at all with another Ralink card on cardbus (MSI CB54G2)... And I'm 99% sure I didn't have this problem before. cheers, David
