I do not have linux-backport-modules-2.6.24 installed. I will gladly test if you send directions on how to regress from 2.26.27. Using standard 2.26.27 module, not backport 2.26.27, the device is usable at short range but not reliable at 30 feet from AP. As Francisco noted it was easier for me to just get another wifi card. Using 2.26.28-8 (current jaunty) the situation is similar: device initiates at 1M, responds to iwconfig wlanx rate 54M, but is useless at 30 feet from an AP (access point). I do not understand the object/goal of regression. Isn't the goal to move forward not backwards?! Problem: the new driver/module doesn't work well; solution: use the old driver! When will the solution be making the new driver/module work well? -mark > Specificially could they: > > 1) confirm the base speed selected after association > 2) if the speed is 1M confirm whether the command below allows higher speeds: > iwconfig wlan0 rate 54M > > (You may need change the name of your ethernet device to match that on > your system.) > -- [Hardy][Intrepid] Low bandwidth with rt2400 / rt2500 drivers https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/190515 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
