The "stuck-at-1Mb" problem happens a few times recently, for different reasons - I suggest doing an "iwconfig rate <something>" and/or "iwconfig rate <something> auto" to see if it works better. (the latter means if it can take auto, so it is different from the former). I say use the latest compat-wireless tarball whenever you need to re-compile. If a problem persists, then ask. Note that if you let it idle for a long time the rate change machanism will down-regulate. (i.e. you should check *while* you are trying to push a lot of traffic through). About dates in wireless-testing log - I had an impression (I could be wrong) that the dates are sometimes git-format-patch/posting dates and not dates at which John commits to wireless-testing? (i.e. the dates shown could be a lot earlier than time of commit, or time of commit is not shown by the dates associated with a patch - I thought this makes sense since the date of a patch should be the first time it appears in the "system", not the first time it gets in-coporated in a particular tree, and patches can go between trees and should *not* pick up date change on the way). -- 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
