Hi jclctr,

They do change drivers from time to time. We used to default to wext
drivers only, now manufacturers are changing over to nl80211, so some
adaptors that were using wext are now using nl80211.

Also, after years of reasonable wifi streaming, I had to change my
channel because my neighbours brought newer, I assume more powerful wifi
routers and also turned on their mobile phone access points. I often get
over 15 access points. The default channels in Australia seem to be 1 ,6
and 11, so I use channel 9, 2 away from my neighbours.
