There's the interface MTU size, RTS/CTS, WEP, whether your CPU can keep up with WEP in hostap mode (yes, it does software decryption), whether the card can keep up with WEP otherwise (yes, it can only do WEP at a slower speed than it's otherwise capable of), TCP/IP options on the socket/in sysctl/in the kernel compile, firewall differences, routing differences... Please provide much more information. My (slightly older) -CURRENT sees up to 4mbit/s with (software-WEP) or without WEP with MTU size of 1900. -- Brian Fundakowski Feldman \'[ FreeBSD ]''''''''''\ <> green@FreeBSD.org \ The Power to Serve! \ Opinions expressed are my own. \,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,\
