	Note 3.10.40-5 is out and sports a shiny 3.10.40 kernel ;) (Installed yesterday, seems to work, but only lightly tested; did not expose 11an for the 5GHz radio or allow HT40 from the GUI, copying the relevant lines from /etc/config/wireless both made 40MHz wifi work again and exposed the settings in the GUI; I seem to recall that this was reported on the openwrt list as well, so is not a cerowrt specific issue...)

	INteresting question, this could be related to the constant flux in openwrt trunk, or could just be a plain bug there. (Just as the inability of keeping gthe settings while sys upgrading from the GUI was an openwrt bug, that got fixed there...)

	This looks like a local issue only, since the only local user on cerowrt is root I do not think that this really affects us.
