I have a wi-fi card in an older (Core i7) machine, running hostapd. That 
works fine, unless I transfer multi-gigabytes of data to my laptop. That 
gets the wi-fi into a stalled state. At that point I remember I shouldn’t 
have done that, and switch to an Ethernet connection to continue the 
transfer.

When I try again some hours later, the wi-fi seems to have cleared its 
trouble.

Not sure if this is related, but just thought I’d mention it; are you 
transferring lots of data?
