Johannes -

I'm currently using firmware version 351.126 (2006-07-29 05:54:02) which I 
obtained quite some time ago from www.linuxwireless.org.

I assume the difference in revisions probably explains the lack of performance 
that I am experiencing compared to others with a similar 4306 based card. At 
the moment I am able to associate with the AP but am unable to maintain a 
connection or consistently do dhcp. I will try one of the firmware revisions 
you have posted and see if I obtain better results. Unfortunately I don't have 
my own AP, and therefore its also hard for me to determine if the issues I see 
are range related as well.

Regards,
