>Description:
Kernel crashes when using a ndis interface. After configuring ndis0 and pinging the router, kernel panics.

I've observed this behaviour with several different wireless cards using different chipsets like Realtek 2500 and RaLink 2500 (using the NDIS 5.1 drivers from windows XP).

I followed the instructions at http://www.xl0.org/FreeBSD/ndis.txt
for building the kernel modules.

ifconfig ndis0 inet 192.168.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 ssid linksys channel 11

ndis0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500

>How-To-Repeat:
Reboot, configure the ndis0 interface, ping the router.
