Comment (by gfaccin):
Humm the ticket is still open. Nice! I can now post the issue real
solution.
For the package loss problem: I updated my original 2 dbi antenna. The new
one is a 5 dbi, and so the package loss reduced to about 2%.
For the speed problem: With the new antenna and all things I've already
tried (disable background noise and the tweaking of previous posts) I
managed to have a maximum download rate of around 20 kbps. That's surely
better than nothing, however that's a lot behind the windows D-link driver
and what I used to get using madwifi-old and the 2 dbi antenna. So after
playing with the iwpriv command:
{{{
conan gfaccin # iwpriv ath0 get_turbo
ath0 get_turbo:1
}}}
So by default my 108 mbps card is working at full speed. That'd be perfect
if the ap supported the technology. However the ap can only go to a
maximum 54 mbps. So trying typing:
{{{
#iwpriv ath0 turbo 0
}}}
made the 20 kbps transfer rate improve to around 250 kbps. Simple isn't
it? Ahh life is much better with a broader band =D
