 although I use ath_pci with xchanmode=0
 I keep getting ath_chan_set: unable to reset channel in my logs, and my
 system freezes completely.

 Using madwifi-ng-r1650-20060624, aircrack-ng-0.6.tar and my WG511T

 I'm doing this:


 {{{
 wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode monitor
 ifconfig ath0 up
 airodump-ng -w dump --ivs ath0
 aireplay-ng -0 10 -a MAC -c MAC ath0
 aireplay-ng -3 -b MAC -h MAC ath0
 }}}



 which results in a System freeze after some minutes, and the following
 logs:


 {{{

 )

 I would be very very glad if someone has a solution to this, as I cannot
 work with this error.
