Subject: Rate problems with iwl3945
Date: Thu, 18 Oct 2007 21:11:03 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20071018191102.GI10674@kernel.dk> (raw)

Hi,

I wrote yesterday about my peering issues with this driver. After
getting the hint that iwlist scan would make it associate, I got that
working.

Copying some files I noticed it was slow, though. iwconfig reveals that
it's only running at 5.5Mb/s and indeed I only get around 650-700kb/sec
copying data. I tried to force it to 54M, but no matter what setting I
try with iwconfig rate, it stays at 5.5 and the performance stinks. With
ipw3945 I always got around ~3mb/s scp'ing data.

With the risk of sounding rude, is this driver expected to be of
production quality? It doesn't link, performance is bad. Am I better off
sticking to ipw3945 still? Are there patches out there I can try? Who
maintains this driver?
