With this kernel all pings have normal response. With the wireless-testing kernel everything seemed to have a delay. Pings, getting pages from the web sending mail.

I now have two wireless connections into the router and both appear good, while they are operating. I have had the link stop responding. i.e the network was up and appeared ok but pings did not get a response. This time though a /etc/init.d/network restart fixed the problem. One thing I have noticed was that under the wireless-testing kernel I was using the swap file. I never have used it in the past. Looks like there may be a leak there. Can I check this somehow? Thanks, Brian
