With the patch it works when the rate is limited to 11M with pid and with minstrel algorithm. Without this limitation it works only with pid. Without this patch it also works with the limiting the rate to 11M with both rate control algorithms, but with minstrel it also works without limiting the rate. Without the patch, without limiting the rate and with minstrel iwconfig reports a rate of 1Mb/s, but I get 3Mb/s with wget, properly an other bug. With pid the rate goes up to 54Mb/s and it does not work. With the patch, without limiting the rate and with minstrel iwconfig reports a rate of 24Mb/s and it does not work. With pid it starts with 1Mb/s and the connection is stable. The rate is changing between 1mb/s, 2Mb/s, 5.5Mb/s and 9Mb/s. I will do more testing with pid and with this patch. I have tested with compat-wireless-2009-01-24 and reversed the patch.
