I always tested at the same place and the signal there is good. D/load speed is 11Mb/sec steady. When it works.

Today I ordered an intel wifi card (which also works at 5MHz) and will swap bcm4313 with it. Since the notebook has to be disassembled for this (it doesn't have separate window for wifi card), and the procedure is rather complex I don't want to do it more times than necessary... ;) Thanks! /mjt from android phone -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
