some problem with open system authentication.
Some clients (including mac80211 as client) use probe requests (frame 59) to
the AP to find out if they're still connected, e.g. see net/mac80211/work.c

can you suggest a known to be working software combination? Might there be a
special problem with AR5212 based cards (PCI ID 168C:0013)?
Is there anything I can help to track down the problem I see?
