Hey,

I bought a hawking HWUG1A USB wireless adapter with external antenna
port thingie. Using it with OpenBSD 4.2 in hostap mode. I'm having
issues where it'll drop clients off the network if they're not
constantly ping'ing something. It also tops out at 100k/sec, even though
the adapter links up in 802.11g mode. The same host is able to transfer
several megabytes/sec over the same USB ports.

The configuration's bridged, and was directly converted from me having a
networked WAP bridged over an extra network port.

Shows up as:

rum0 at uhub3 port 1
rum0: Ralink 802.11 bg WLAN, rev 2.00/0.01, addr 2
rum0: MAC/BBP RT2573 (rev 0x2573a), RF RT2528, address 00:0e:3b:09:81:65

Configured as:

media autoselect mediaopt hostap nwid dormando mode 11g chan 3 txpower 95 up

... I've twiddled the mode (I think), txpower, channel, etc.

I'm emptyheaded as far as wireless still. What should I try next? The
dropping thing is pretty annoying :)

Thanks,
-Dormando
