Hey laptop-discuss readers! I'm stuck with a somewhat weird problem here. My notebook (an ASUS V6V) is running nevada 33 and I'm suffering from poor wireless performance every now an then. I own two access points: A DLink DI-614+ and a Draytek Vigor 2500WE. When using opensolaris with the latter one (the Draytek) everything turns out to work just fine. The link is stable and everything's great - even with WEP encryption enabled. As soon as I start using the DLink-AP, things start getting weird. A continous `ping' on any host (even the AP itself) loses exactly 33% of all packets. I already disabled 4x mode (which is kinda useless without DLink-NICs nevertheless) and toggled between short and long preamble mode but it's still a no go.
The V6V comes with an integrated Intel IPW2200, which works under both Windows and Linux without a hitch. Even when using the DLink-AP. So it *must* be something iwi/opensolaris related. Does anybody have a clue what the problem might be? Tilman Klar
