Well, it chokes on my WPA.
Are you using WPA2 (or WPA+WPA2) on your AP? I have the same issue with mine
but it started working once I just set my AP to plain WPA. This driver is
being re-written for upstream inclusion so I suspect the problem will go
away once that is complete. It just seems to be taking ages.
Cool. Got any "how to" pages handy?

Not sure, how can I try?

Sorry, I have a HDD version.
I asked this question about ext4 and what options to use. I suspect that we
don't have a FS optimised for SSDs as yet. There's UBIFS but I'm not sure
whether that's for SSDs or just pure Flash devices.
