Comment 49 for bug 341952

I don't have lockup problems but serious performance problems. I tried all of the following:

 * Installing linux-jaunty-backports-generic
 * Installing madwifi SVN trunk as of today (and activating it with jockey)
 * Installing madwifi snapshot of 22 April 2009

I get this horrible ping to my gateway:

--- 192.168.1.1 ping statistics ---
20 packets transmitted, 18 received, 10% packet loss, time 19057ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 1.906/33.707/343.094/76.057 ms

With a ethernet cable:

--- 192.168.1.1 ping statistics ---
7 packets transmitted, 7 received, 0% packet loss, time 6000ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.436/0.461/0.594/0.056 ms

Before upgrading to Jaunty, I had a perfect flat ping with atheros as well.
