Because, unlike traffic to/from an AP, XO/XO traffic uses broadcast
to perform route discovery before sending the payload. This broadcast
is repeated by all XOs that hear it...
Routes are discarded after 5 - 10 seconds, so route discovery happens
frequently.

Hi,
I am also trying to compile the last stable kernel 2.6.28.7/8 ; I tried

oldconfig on the 2.6.25 original fedora config of the XO and using the
recent kpkg
