Client mode to a WNDR 3700 situated in the next room.  I didn't run any
more extensive tests, I was only trying to ensure that MIMO was
functional.  (If you asked me, I'd guess that the AP is doing aggregation
and the STA isn't, but since you aren't asking, I'm not going to guess.)

Perhaps.

For me, usbnet goes the other way around (upstream traffic has higher
throughput than downstream).  It would probably take a USB protocol
analyser to understand why.

It looks to me like a completely separate module implemented in its own
microcontroller (I think it's connected through SDIO, plus a UART, plus
a GPIO, plus an interrupt line).  Jason, do you know where I can find the
programming manual?
