Not more than 200 kb/s when my laptop is 1 meter away from the AP. In Windows it gets up to 500 kb/s, which is faster, but it's about 2 times slower than desired 11 Mbps... AP is 3com OfficeConnect Wireless Gateway. Wifi card is Trendnet with ADM8211 chip. Increasing txpower and changing other settings with iwconfig doesn't help...
