I posted some time ago my information: rt2500 in a pcmcia card (and other one in PCI) that works flawless in gutsy (with minor issues like not reporting rate) results in a card that works in hardy, but terribly slow. After connecting, if you do:
$sudo iwconfig wlan0 rate 54M ...then problems seems to go away. I'm connecting to a wpa-psk g access point, and getting between 1000 and 2000 KiB/s with the pcmcia, and 1500-2400 KiB/s with the PCI one. The news: I tried the linux-backports-modules-hardy package and my problems persisted. By the way, i'm trying to workaround with a simple script in /etc/network/if-up.d/ with no success at all. That simple script is like this: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /etc/network/if-up.d/99rt2500_hack #! /bin/sh # Only for wlan0... [ "$IFACE" = "wlan0" ] || exit 0 wait 5 iwconfig wlan0 rate 54M This seems to works at first sight, but it isn't working at all: iwconfig report a 54Mb rate, but practical speed seem to be limited to 80 KiB/s, very far from the 1000/1500 KiB/s I usually achieve. I'm not sure if this helps anyone. I just saw people go on reporting and wondered if this improves the information a gave previously.
