Public bug reported: When under heavy load RT2501USB will hang. Applications report 'Transmit Buffer Full' to logs. Temporary solution is to start/stop wireless networking with NetworkManager. Easily reproducible on my system but hammering the interface (Second Life client reliably causes a crash within a few minutes).
