Hi all,
I've been battling this issue: my wireless speeds are grindingly slow. iwconfig while connected returns:
wlan0 IEEE 802.11bg ESSID:"onigiri"
Mode:Managed Frequency:2.422 GHz Access Point: 00:21:7C:9D:CB:61
Bit Rate=1 Mb/s Tx-Power=27 dBm
Retry long limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Power Management:off
Link Quality=16/100 Signal level=16/100
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
using iwconfig to set rate above 1M has mixed success, inevitably crashing the network at some point; much sooner if it is set above 24Mb/s.
Also, changes to rate through iwconfig do not survive reboot.
Via google, I've found people complaining about this problem in both Fedora and Ubuntu circles, with a seemingly wide variety of hardware, and have read various patches in bugreports (none of which worked for me).
My questions are: Is there a fix for this? Or even just a good scripting tutorial that you can point me at so that I can artificially set rate up on boot?
and: Is NetworkManager possibly the culprit, and where do I go to file a bugreport for it if so?
I'm curious to hear what you think.
Thanks,
David
