      Im getting this in the console every second.  I have the wifi interface bridged with LAN and have tried both 11g and 11b modes.

      I cant get any wireless client to connect.

      Is anyone else experiencing this?  Im running a mini-pci atheros card in a watchguard x700.

        Hmm interesting, when I change the channel setting from auto to channel 11 on 802.11g mode, beacon errors go away and Im able to connect.

          There is a problem with "auto" in the channel settings for AP mode, I think. I remember reading something to that effect.

          Auto doesn't make a lot of sense for an AP anyhow, using a specific channel is better.

            Some cards don't work right in auto for some reason.
