      Hi Guys,
      I have a via 1 ghz embedded PC with pfSence 1.0.1.
      It has a PCMCIA Dlink dwl-ag660 (Atheros AR5212 chipset) which has a driver/hardware error.

      “ath0: stuck beacon; resetting (bmiss count 4)”,

      This is what i found, if it helps…I got no idea!

      Any help would be greatly appreciated

        not sure if this might be your problem, but I just noticed that I only get this error when I'm using my 2.4Ghz wireless phone…
