But I still don't understand why starting hostapd changes the situation... And yes, I've read the man page several times now.
Not sure i can answer that one for you, perhaps hostapd is proxying or has longer wait for timeouts? and keeps the connection for longer? hostapd maybe managing the connection better (longer), that is perhaps a question for the developers. They may recommend to try the lastest snapshot of PPC arch.

I just googled that and found nothing, it is probably a request from your adaptor that hostapd is accepting (my guess), as hostapd is designed for multiple access points polling and dynamically joining each other and such.

Did you get a chance to test the adaptor from a Windoz box? is the adaptor it working properly? I'm ready for sleep soon too
