 |
|
Hi, i got a problem using my wlan (ad-hoc, unsecured). The connection established, everything is ok, but periodically the connection "freeses" for awhile. It's very annoying when listening music or watching movies via wlan. Have anyone experienced the same problem? Is there any solution? I'm using the last ipw3945 version from portage, gentoo-kernel 2.6.17-r4
By the way: under windows everything is tip-top (same network, same connection bitrate)

I'm having this exact same problem on a Dell Latitude D620. Were you able to resolve it?

Hi, I got the stable connection. You have to set rate to 11M. I have experimented with 24M - it is also working, but freeses also. Not so often, and not for so long, but anyway... The only conclusion is - the ipw3945 driver for linux is not so good as the driver for windows... For example, the Ralink's rt61 driver, while not perfect, can do 54M.
