Hi!

I'm not sure what could've caused this! Not much has changed in the
wireless stack and ath driver between 9.1 and 9.2. Would you be able to
work through different svn versions of stable/9 between 9.1 and 9.2 to
narrow down when things broke?

It may be something other than the wifi driver/stack.

Thanks!
