I am using larry's .bz2 of bcm43xx and I get this ...
wlan0 IEEE 802.11b/g ESSID:"Network4Home" Nickname:"Broadcom 4311"
Mode:Managed Frequency=2.437 GHz Access Point:blah
Bit Rate=24 Mb/s Tx-Power=18 dBm
RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Link Quality=50/100 Signal level=-69 dBm Noise level=-71 dBm
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:11 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
Is it possible to get 54mb/s? Should I care if it's mainly for
residential cable modem right now?
