It was repeatable 3 times atleast but seems a bit more random than what
I thought.
Once working for a while and hungup on ifconfig down (worked a few
times), when unplugged I got
panic: kernel diagnostic assertion "xfer->pipe->intrxfer == xfer"
failed: file "../../../../dev/usb/ehci.c", line 3391
Stopped at Debugger+0x7
Couldn't enter trace I guess because I was using a usb
keyboard. Network hung at time so tried ifconfig down
(couldn't be killed) and up (usually works)
I guess I should have done some better research beyond AP compat as I
went out and bought this just to get my android updated which oddly
dictates using wifi for system updates and the update via usb windows
app just reported that there were no updates (openssl).
I had started setting up Alpine linux on the wifi chip the system had
originally and found a kernel security update required the very next day
and so struggling to find if the security bugs would be a problem I
thought "fsck that" and setting up OpenBSD as an access point was such
an astoundingly nicer experience, so kudos for that.
