Just saw that I've been using this patchset since Aug 27, 2012 with my
AP (http://www.wikidevi.com/wiki/Linksys_WMP600N) and
compat-wireless-3.5-rc5-1 and linux 3.1.10

iw list and iwconfig are showing always 0 dBm for each channel (2.4 and
5 GHz).



2.4 GHz / 40 MHz

Well, I couldn't find any problems (means: it isn't worse, but I'm not
sure if it is better as before). 

One thing I can see frequently, is the fact, that I'm getting
surprisingly high throughput rates using netperf and 2.4 GHz/40 MHz at
16 MB/s. 
Why can I see them just sometimes and not always (at the same
position)? This behaviour is not patch related!



5.22 GHz / 40 MHz

The behaviour didn't change. It's unusable as before. See this thread:
