Wireless card drops default route when inactive

Hi all,

I am having an issue with my Netgear WG311v2 wireless card. I recently
got it working using the ACX100 driver for the Texas Instrument acx111
chipset that the card has. The problem is that when I let the machine
sit idle and go back to use it, the default route is no longer there
and it has to be restored manually, even though I noticed that doing a
ping will restore it, but simply using a browser will not.
I am running FC3, kernel 2.6.9-1.667
driver version = acx100-0.2.0pre8_plus_fixes_51 and firmware version
that I got off of the Windows driver cd. I've tried other firmware
versions from web with the same results.

Here is a snippet of the log file with definite suspect statements, but
I am not certain they are the contributing factor to the problem. The
DEAUTHEN line seems like an issue along with the NETDEV WATCHDOG
timeout:
