Hi Thom,

It's Rev 02. I've been checking the performance by running "apt-get
updates" against one of the Irish repository servers. With earlier
kernels (e.g. 2.6.20-16) I get close to 200Kb/s downloads. When I
upgraded to 2.6.22-x the performance dropped down to around 16Kb/s when
just a few metres from the wireless hub. I've been using 2.6.20-16 for a
few weeks now and only accidentally booted the latest 2.6.22-9. With
this I'm getting 160Kb/s which is close enough to be usable.

Does that help?

Chris
