I had a bad experience with Intel 2200bg in some cafe. They have an unsecured

wireless network on channel 7 there, and everytime I tried to connect I had

dhclient found no leases, firmware errors in dmesg and only a small range of

IPs I could ping (with broadcast IPs as the lesser and bigger IPs in range).

The same setup on 6th channel gave me just normal networking experience,

while all the rest in cafe including those with 2200bg under Windows had no

problems.

Is it a firmware problem or a driver bug? Where should I submit the bug?
