Stop AGG before we are associated ?!
Is that leftovers from the previous association that was torn down ?

Associating to another AP ? A band maybe ?

Interesting. The FW is complaining that you are Txing on a channel that is defined as passive channel...

There are a few AMPDUs issues here but I guess the worst issue you are seeing is due to the passive channel thing.
