Cascardo, you were right :-) Your patch did not cause the problem.
I get those errors also with an unpatched compat-wireless-2010-10-25 driver.
With a patched compat-wireless-2.6.33.6 there occur no errors.
The router reports a better signal quality compared to the unpatched module, but
I can not really recognize a better throughput - usually still max 1 mbit @ 10
meters.
I noticed that the connection is fast for a short time after booting (10 mbit @
10 meters), but a few seconds after the download on speedtest.net started
(meaning the network gets under load), speed drops to 1 mbit and never recovers
to faster speed again; somehow like an "unrecoverable fallback mechanism"...?
