[driverloader] Setting mode to Ad-Hoc causes system to crash or reboot

[Linuxant support (Jonathan)]

Hi,

please submit the picture of the kernel panic and also the dumpdiag at 
support at linuxant.com. You should also send all information you have that 
might help us to solve the problem.

Did you tried the card in 'Managed' mode?
