Hi 
the same problem occurres running standard ath hostap mode with and without 
WEP. I do not know on current because I use releng_6

I changed one of the ath cards using a prism card and the problem persists. 

This happens for me under load and I can bring it back by ifconfig down/up 

Then I switched back to bridge (not if_bridge) and the problem still persists 
but not so often. This thing definitly do not happen on releng_5 when booting 
the exactly same hardware and configurations.

Could  it be possible that the bridge blocks after the wl card did some rate 
shifting or any speed negociation with the client stations?

when this happens under load then there is still upload traffic for a long 
time while download is zero then. This I mean out to client zero, in from 
client still goes through.
