Have you attempted to upgrade to FBSD 5.X? If you have, could I have a copy of your image, I'm needing this for the atheos wireless ABG drivers. I'm playing with pebble at the moment which does support them, however with what you have mentioned I don't want the system to fall over.

The reason this is happening is that someone connected to the m0n0box via wireless has their power save mode setting on their wireless card turned on. This freaks out the HostAP drivers. I'm getting it all the time because I run a WISP. I hear that FreeBSD 5.x has a fix for this. It's even worse in Linux. The hostAP drivers there will crash the kernel. For my system, I have m0n0 logging to my logging server. Then I have a script that check for the timeout keywords. If 10 or more are found in the same minute it will email my cellphone. I have to log into the m0n0wall box and reboot it. Big pain in the ass really. I'm currently working on a FreeBSD AP because m0n0wall really isn't a AP.
