Well, this is what I get for using a machine manufactured in 2007. I
suppose this bug went unnoticed for so long because development moved
onto machines with other wifi chipsets.

I understand. It's old hardware, and not exactly common nowadays, so I'm
glad you didn't simply brush me off by suggesting I buy a newer laptop.

Glad I was able to help a little. How should I go about helping test a
fix? I've switched my T60 to Debian because I need working wifi, but I
still have a ThinkCentre M92P running -current. Should I try finding a
USB wifi adapter that uses the AR5418 chipset?
