How much did your connection slow down? It is clear that this commit might possibly slow down your connection, but not by a lot. And that's only because before we were sending with a higher rate than the AP allowed us to... If you need the higher speed then set your AP to G-only to make it include more rates in the basic rate set, that'll speed up your connection properly. That's all discounting driver bugs which may exist, of course. johannes
