Hi. The results you are getting are very strange. I've set up wireless network using Cabletron RoamAbout cards, but i didn't use ppp. When WEP encryption on cards were enabled i got approx. 500kbytes/s of throughtput. When i disabled WEP i got approx. 800 kbytes/s. Since i haven't used ppp, i'm not sure, but this is not OK. PPP shouldn't have so much overhead. Best regards, D.
