I have this problem on all three of my boxes. Rate drops to 11 and then to 1
1. An Asus EEEpc 701 (not sure of the chipset at the moment)
2. My compaq desktop with RaLink RT2500 802.11g Cardbus/mini-PCI (rev 01)
3. My HP DV9201ca (dv9000 series) Broadcom BCM4311 (rev 01)

I'm starting to think this problem isn't limited to a specific driver / hardware set.
Are there other reports that confirm this?

I tried the fixes to add the rate change at start-up and I believe it only changed the reporting, not the rate.

This is with ibex on all machines 2.6.27-7-generic, and the amd64 kernel on the HP.

Wifi is a must for market share. That the out-of-the-box everyone wants.
Hope this is fixed with the next update/release
