Madwifi has a major problem with 802.11a sensitivity that makes it pretty much useless for long links. (the entire sorry tale can be seen in this bug : http://madwifi.org/ticket/705) I'm wondering if there is any prospect of making a 'fixed' madwifi that is compatible with OpenWrt. This appears

I want to use the ad7418 driver which is new in 2.6.22. I'm wondering if it would be easier to a) use that kernel or b) make a patch to back-port the driver to the existing 2.6.20 kernel ? Anyone have any thoughts ? Generally I'd expect some of the patches would not apply to the newer kernel, but I
