Comment (by hgsolari <at> gmail.com):

 >  dhclient ath0

 For some of us, dhclient and dhclient3 are producing this problem (see my
 post above, hgsolari on 06/27/08 14:35:54).
 Simplest work-around, use NetworkManager to handle the connection.
 You may also try to load the module with
 options ath_pci autocreate=none
 and then create the device ath0 with
 wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode sta

 I thought the later was a workaround but I am not longer sure about it (I
 do believe that there is a bug or compatibility problem around this)
