Slow association

Hello all,

Often, I experience a long delay (around a minute) before my two DWL-650 cards associate. Both are controlled by prism2.c 2002-02-13.

Sometimes, the station associates within a few seconds, and association with "commercial" access points is always immediate.

Has anyone else experienced this delay?

I enclose log excerpts from the access point and the station. At 17:37:26, the station card seems to be ready to associate, but not until 17:38:16 does the access point react.

Cheers,
/M
