If you do that then the "percentage error" doubles and you also can't really draw any reliable conclusions. You want to be using one zd1211rw connecting to an AP which is wired to another system. > Linux version of the vendor driver is running about the same speed as > zd1211rw.

Then perhaps you should try harder to get more speed, so that you can see the difference, which has been verified by a few people very recently. It will be much much easier to work towards the performance of Linux vendor driver if you can drive yourself to do so. > I got 89,330 of these over the 2.5hr copy.
