Run "athstats" at a command prompt or the command page and you may get
some helpful info.

athstats: ath0: Inappropriate ioctl for device
Same problem under 6_2 and 6_3
My trusty old pre-1.0 pfSense AP always shows tens
of thousands of errors on the ath interface but it works fine. It's
one of those things I want to look at closer eventually, but I don't
have any problems with it, so it hasn't been a priority.
Errors on counters do matter less than real connection failures..
I think too, that the errors are not really a problem. I run pfSense a
long time and think my out of mbuf-problem came with some 1.2RC-x.
Example:
mbuf is growing and growing during 36h, no special load...
pfsense:~# netstat -mb
4998/132/5130 mbufs in use (current/cache/total)
2378/80/2458/0 mbuf clusters in use (current/cache/total/max)
2376/56 mbuf+clusters out of packet secondary zone in use (current/cache)
6207K/193K/6400K bytes allocated to network (current/cache/total)

Restarting ath0
pfsense:~# ifconfig ath0 down && ifconfig ath0 up
pfsense:~# netstat -mb

this must be some leak in the driver.....
under sis1 runs a well loaded DNS, Mail and Webserver and some IPv6
traffic and sis1 has never a problem...
Try to graph this with snmp, if i can find this values.
