Interesting, are you fiddling with the "distance" module parameter? (I
hasn't checked if voyage 0.7.5 support that yet).

Wow, never heard of that, but certainly I have had *serious* slowness
even on shorter links, I once had a ~500mts test, that *never* wanted
to go above ~6Mbps :( .  Anyway, I have an AP with ath5k, but it is
for short distances, my only issue is when it just "reboot", but I
believe that could be related to overheating (reducing card transmit
power from 23 to 15 dB almost eliminated the problem).
