I've got a different effect here.
The performance slowly decreases to zero with 11g.

Ok, was just a question to be sure.

If it is capable to transfer few bits in hostap mode,
it is also capable to run hostap. This was a card listed
in the manual pages ("Netgear MA311"). At that time
hostap did not function properly.

After the great upgrades by Sam Leffler, hostap started to
work for me on ath(4). Only 11g (and only the hostap part!)
does not work here (Netgear WG311T <-> Netgear WG511T).
