iwconfig thinks my 802.11g card is 802.11b
Hello everyone,
I've been having some odd problems. When I do iwconfig, I get this: Code:
wlan0 IEEE 802.11b ESSID:"IceCube" But my card is an 802.11g card, it's the DWL-G510 using the Marvell chipset, the driver being mrv8ka51 and obtained from the ndiswrapper website ( and not the ones on the CD ). I often get a rating of 54Mb/s but the throughput I get seems to be along the lines of an 802.11b connection whereas with my laptop, I get much higher transfer speeds. Any suggestions? I'm running Gentoo with the 2.6.9 Gentoo Kernel with ndiswrapper 0.12-r3. Thanks in advance. |
regardless of what it says, it also sya's you're transferoing at almost 54mb, (e.g. wireless g speeds)
I think you're too focused on the details. |
