You can try that version and do some testing.
Should be able to upgrade from 1.5.2 to that.

Any reports concerning if things are working as they should in 1.5.3?

There has been no problem in 1.5.3 so far. Even after heavily downloading.

Well, thx for reporting back. Have you reported the problem back to the vanilla-openwrt people? Maybe your loggs and ability to reproduce the problem could help shed some light on the issue?

I am still working on trying to get usable debug information.
Looking at the openwrt bugtracking system, it looks like the same problem has been in openwrt/mac80211 for years.

Maybe we're looking at different bugs then, because I'm running rc5 and I see no such problem. Have you tried rc5?

Just a few of the bugreports:
https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/6411
https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/8446
https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/9693
https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/9950
https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/10067
https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/10148
https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/10452
https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/10486
https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/10643
https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/10952
And yes, the same was also happening with a "clean" 10.03.1-rc5 install, but the final 10.03.1 (and the patched versions) is crashing more often.

do any of you know if it is possible to get an (up to date) Atheros AR9103 databook? Or if Qualcomm need an NDA for access to the databook?
