With these patches installed, my RTL8187B device was stuck at 1 Mbs using the 'pid' algorithm. Without them, the rate rapidly increases to 54 Mbs. I'm roughly 2 m from my AP, and get an indicated signal of -22 dBm and a link quality of 98/100. My kernel is from wireless-testing (v2.6.28-rc2-4159-g6c11cd2) with the rtl8187 power control and timing patches submitted earlier. There are no changes to any of the mac80211 components.
