 hello
 We have experienced some problems with madwifi driver and queuing
 inaccuracy (htb/cbq)
 if i connect three devices to one ap(mode) madwifi "ath0"
 and make three classes for each of three users to share bw on interface i
 have experiencing inaccuracy.
 the same problem is with one client connected to ap with madwifi driver.
 if i set to limit this client to some speed (htb) class with rate 128kbit
 and ceil 128kbit i experiencing (client is downloading using tcp protocol)
 rates between 64kbit and 256kbit.

 I have tested the same configuration with hostap driver and pism cards and
 the queuing is working fine (if i limit driver to 128kbit i have 128kbit
 +-10kbit rates on connected client)

 I have tested madwifi with different txqueuelen settings on wifi0 and ath0
 and best results i have when txqueue is set to 1000 on ath0 and 1000 on
 wifi0 but rate is fluctuating +-60kbit witch is big inaccuracy.

 Connected clients to the ap mode madwifi driver have RSSI=64 and 54Mbit
 rate.
 Madwifi was acting in 802.11g mode.
