Seems to be the new PID rate control algorithm. I believe Stephano (CC'd) was sending some patches for this. Please try changing in config.mk >From this value: CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT=pid To this: CONFIG_MAC80211_RC_DEFAULT=simple and let us know how that goes. Oh and linux-kernel is the wrong list to use, please just use linux-wireless for future e-mails.
