00:02:72:27:68 is device in bridge mode connected to Hostap wlan3wdsx device
there are 2 wds interface on wlan3 ... and sometime happen, that both of
them get lost and i have restart wlan3 ( resetup iwparam as well)
it happen once in 36 hours or so

with kernel 2.4.23-pre6 it working nice, w/o problem

and i found this in pre9 changelog
Summary of changes from v2.4.23-pre8 to v2.4.23-pre9
============================================

<achirica:telefonica.net>:
  o Fix compatibily issue with some APs
  o Fix wireless stats locking




what do you thing about all of this ....
