Comment 119 for bug 124159

Problem still exists for me with Hardy Beta and BCM4318 AirForce One 54g on Dell Inspiron 2200. Looks like poor sensivity for me:

$ iwconfig wlan0
wlan0 IEEE 802.11g ESSID:"xxxx"
          Mode:Managed Frequency:2.437 GHz Access Point: 00:17:9A:C9:B8:29
          Bit Rate=2 Mb/s Tx-Power=10 dBm
          Retry min limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr=2346 B
          Link Quality=80/100 Signal level=-25 dBm Noise level=-36 dBm
          Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
          Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0

There were no such problem with ndiswrapper (which i can't use now, btw).
