I wasn't paying too much attention to this thread. However as part of a
separate thread* I had a look into orinoco's sensitivity setting.
Anyway, see my e-mail earlier today for a description of what the values
do. The description should be valid for Intersil and Agere firmware
(including most if not all old versions), and applies to orinoco and
WL_LKM drivers.
Regards,
Dave.
