Sadly, no. With your tree, the 4311 generates a spectrum that looks like my 
4306 - the amplitude 
saturates the detector, but there is a high-frequency spread that goes at least 
to channel 5. The 
iperf rates are as follows:

Rate set        Transfer rate (t/r)

1 Mbs           0.85/2.84
2 Mbs           1.64/3.02
5.5 Mbs         3.84/1.55

It failed with the lowest of the OFDM rates (6 Mbs). I didn't try any higher 
rates. These tests were 
done with the standard power.
