I've a HP NX8220, ubuntu 2.6.12-9-386 with ipw220 1.0.6.
With some data load (ftp or similar) the driver behaves erratically and, after
restarting, return operational only with:

ifdown eth0
ifup eth0

cycle, just to block again after few megabytes...

the dmesg part concerning the ipw is:

while the output from /var/log/kern.log and syslog is
