Yes, it sounds like something very low-level (i.e. not an Airport
hardware/software problem). I doubt it's the OS, unless it's a
very old version of Mac OS X (pre 10.1).
If your SMB Barricade is giving you problems on both the wired and
wireless ethernet ports, I'd suspect that, not OS X. I've used OS X
10.1 and 10.2.x for about nine months now, and I've *never* had a
problem like you're describing. I seriously doubt that there's a
software problem with the OS, and I haven't heard about any os
extensions that would muck with the IOKit on waking to the degree
you've described.
