WRT54GX2 error when connecting with a Broadcom 802.11n NIC

Question

Every time I try and connect my Acer Ferrari 1005 built-in wireless NIC to this router I get the following error in the system log of the router:
Oct 31 15:58:55 (none) user.warn klogd: [0][18][2][10082879] Unknown QoS Action 26 (len 25)

xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx is the MAC address of the NIC.
Then Windows XP fails to connect. Does anyone have any idea what the problem is or how I can diagnose it?
Thanks.

hi , hardwire the PC to the router first....then access it using http://192.168.1.1 "admin" is the password.....once in...go to the wireless section and then to "wireless network access"...Ensure that "disabled" is selected and there are no MAC addresses specified here.
let me know if this works for you.
