iwconfig saying "Bit Rate=1 Mb/s" can be safely ignored. If there is a bitrate indication on transmitted packets in tcpdump, then that's bogus too, as rate control is done in hardware. (I.e. if you want to verify the rate at which a packet is transmitted, you'll have to sniff from another machine.) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
