Cisco 1121G AP and Linksys wireless clients

I've got a problem with my Cisco 1121G AP. I'll post the Config first and then the log. Long and the short of it is I have 2 computers and a laptop. Laptop has a Cisco a/b/g wireless card while the two desktops have Linksys Wireless-G PCI cards. The Cisco card can go forever no problems, the desktops both have some issue where they get deauthenticated and ...well see below. It causes havoc when a user attempts to watch streaming media across the wireless links. Generally what I have to do is restart the wireless connection and it works for a time before the same problem pops back up.

Config:

Your problem sounds like a bug in the Linksys cards. I'd recommend getting the latest Linksys firmware, then if this doesn't fix the problem, contact Linksys tech support.

Either that or replace the Linksys cards with PI21AGs.
