[ath9k-devel] bandwidth problems

[mbutubuntu]

Hello folks, I've a Netgear WNA1100 
<http://www.netgear.com/Products/WirelessAdapter/WirelessAdaptersforSimpleSharing/WNA1100.aspx> 
USB adaptor and I've installed drivers from compat wireless on Fedora 14 
with Kernel 2.6.35.10-74, it works but iwconfig says the bandwidth is 
limited to 1Mbps, the network is very slow and I can't tune the rate 
parameter (Error for wireless request "Set Bit Rate" (8B20)).

is there any solution? please send me an answer quickly because I can't 
change the adaptor after tomorrow.

Best Regards,

Fabio Buda

Rate control handled in firmware so iwconfig does not shows the actual
rate(which will be higher) and you cannot configure bit rates.
You can get the actual rate by looking at ath9k_htc debug stats.
