I've noticed a few things:
- At home, the wireless card fails each time I transfer a big file (more
than 300 MB through SSH) from other computer. I've got a Zyxel Prestige
650HW router with WEP enabled and signal quality is about 50/100
(obtained with iwconfig).
- At my university I can transfer a few big files before the fail. There
are Cisco APs and we use Cisco VPN to get Internet access.
- The card also fails using an ad-hoc connection.
- I think that the card can fail due to "hot", because in ac-less places
it fails earlier.
- I've seen other computers with ipw2200 and they doesn't fail. I've got
other laptop with ipw2200 that the only thing it does is to "reset
firmware" (saw in dmesg) a few times when a big file is transfered.
- I think that the fail comes when the card should be resetted.
- I've not tried to transfer any big file in Windows... I think I should
do it.
That's all by the moment.
