11 MB/s???
I thought this was a 802.11a/g card? I checked iwconfig and sure enough it shows only 11mbits:

eth1      IEEE 802.11b/g  ESSID:"Gulix"  Nickname:"compaqr3000z"
Mode:Managed Frequency=2.412 GHz Access Point: 00:12:17:1C:88:40 * Bit Rate=11 Mb/s * Tx-Power=15 dBm RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
         Encryption key:XXXX-XXXX-XX   Security mode:open
         Link Quality=100/100  Signal level=3/3  Noise level=190/100
         Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
         Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0

Ok, so signal strength never shows anything useful so I tried to do a transfer of a large file from my server in the next room and sure enough I was only getting 1.8MB/s, which comes out to barely over 14 Mbits/second.

Is that all this device can do or am I doing something wrong?

Hi guys !

Just a comment about the support of 4318 based cards ;) I'm in a "clean"
RF environment, I use the stock 2.6.18.2 bcm43xx driver with the ">1GB
memory" patch and I can connect to my AP at 11 MB/s with WPA encryption
(wpa_supplicant) without any problem of connexion or stability now. A
very good work from bcm43xx devel, thanks for that !!!
