OK, that confirms that Larry's patch was wrong - at least the dump
looks consistent now.
Probably the RT2561 and the RTL8180 simply have a lower Tx power and
thus can't get the signal through the walls as easily as the zd1211rw.
If you still think that it's a rate control problem, please try all
the rates individually and see if one of them works better.
