Ivo,
I am testing an
blackbox:~# lsusb |grep Link
Bus 008 Device 002: ID 2001:3c00 D-Link Corp. [hex] DWL-G122 802.11g rev. B1

on a Debian Lenny system (to be released as Debian 5.0 very soon).
Lenny comes with an 2.6.26.8 kernel.
I get lots of timeouts in when I try to connect to the AP. I found your commit
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=d06193f311102b2c990ec5f66b470ea49ecc73a4
though I can not (I have not yet enough git expertise) tell, if that commit
went into 2.6.26.8. If not that would probably explain the problem I see.
The details of what I see
dmesg output after plugin the WLAN adapter:
