    I have been testing with an atheros card and it is working good.  It handles 2 interfaces, ath0_wlan0 and ath0_wlan1 no problem.  Until I do a reboot or cold boot…

    If I do a reboot, having not configured the second interface, (ath0_wlan1), and I only have the first interface (ath0_wlan0), the box boots fine.

    BUT...

    If I do a reboot or a cold boot, and I have both interfaces configured, ath0_wlan0 and ath0_wlan1, it looks like it hangs while trying to load the atheros's second interface, ath0_wlan1.

    Here is the output on the screen on the serial port, (WWAN = ath0_wlan0, WLAN = ath0_wlan1):

    Configuring WWAN interface...done.
    Configuring WLAN interface...ath0_wlan0: ieee80211_new_state_locked: pending SCAN -> AUTH transition lost
    ath0_wlan0: ieee80211_new_state_locked: pending SCAN -> AUTH transition lost
    ath0_wlan0: ieee80211_new_state_locked: pending SCAN -> AUTH transition lost
    ath0_wlan0: ieee80211_new_state_locked: pending SCAN -> AUTH transition lost

    This message continues to repeat itself indefinitely, and I cannot recover, I have just been re-flashing the CF card to start over and reload the config.

    Any thoughts here?
