Comment 139 for bug 190515

Hello,

tested the "fixed" driver using ubuntu-proposed repository and this packages:

linux-image-2.6.27-14-generic
linux-backports-modules-2.6.27-14-generic

I can confirm that the driver now initializes fine at a much higher rate (in my case at about 48Mbit/s), while link quality ist displayed at a very high level (by network-manager).

BUT, running a web-based dsl-speed-test only the first run (after initialization of my wireless connection my network-manager) gives me a good result (for me about 6MBit/s which maches exaclty what should be) and any further run of the test shows different speeds, but all of them are much lower, simetimes as low as 1Mbit/s.

I repeated this test switching multiple times between this driver and the legacy rt2500 driver and everytime get the same results. Somehow the speed is very unstble for me.

BTW. The legacy driver passed the dsl-speed-test constantly at about 5.8Mbit/s at each run.
