I have never ever seen net45xxs reboot for no apparent reason (and I do 
have several of them! ;), but I use pretty strong power supplies 
(mostly those 18.5 VDC/2.7 A switchmode notebook PSUs). Maybe your 
power supply is too weak as well (receiving is OK but transmitting at 
high rates makes the voltage drop too much)? Could be a firmware 
problem with the wireless card too, although then you'd probably see 
wi_timeout errors instead.

In any case, this is almost definitely no m0n0wall issue. There is the 
chance that it might be a FreeBSD issue, but I don't believe that. And 
yes, I've been running m0n0wall on net45xx's at max throughput (to find 
out what that max actually is), too.

Still, you might want to kill watchdogd and try again just to see if 
it's the watchdog that is resetting the CPU.

Maybe it simply doesn't like the weather/temperatures. ;)
