I have exactly same card [1] and using 2.6.20 with _only_ 2.6.20_combined
patch. I always get connected at 11Mbps with real transfers around 1.8 MB/s
(download)[2] and 0.7MB/s (upload) [3] in excellent conditions [4].
I know 1.8 MB/s is above theoretical limit of 11Mbps but it is exactly like
that.
