I can't get my Senao miniPCI SL-2511MP PLUS 2.10 card to work.

The card has a sticker:
S/N: 044377522
NL-2511MP PLUS(ETSI)
MAC: 00026F33B9F3

Here I show what commands I run, and what appears after that in "dmesg"
output:

The output of the last command usually is:
,---------------------------
| wlan0     No scan results
`---------------------------
but sometimes (so far 3 times, for probably a hundred attepts to get a
scan), I get a correct scan with 6 or mode APs in range, many of them
with very good signal, like -68 dBm at noise level -90 dBm. The card is
in fact in good radio rage, so that should be the correct output all the
time.

I also tried downgrading the card's STA firmware to v1.7.4, with the
same results.
