Bug Description
Binary package hint: linux-ubuntu-
In Feisty rt2500 ralink wifi card was using legacy rt2500 driver. In Gutsy new rt2x00 driver is used. As of 2.6.22-9 version new driver seems to work with my card but throughput is about two times lower than using legacy driver. It is painfull - new driver is unable to sustain 200kb/s transfer while legacy one has no problem with that.

I too am experiencing serious speed issues (peak <90kb/s) now that rt2x00 is working by default. I am hesitant to confirm the bug until I do a bit more testing (ie. try the latest rt2x00 daily from serialmonkey), but if symptoms persist I'll confirm.
