alex@alex-laptop:~$ sudo rmmod $(lsmod | cut -f 1 -d ' ' | grep iwl)

no module names given
Usage: rmmod [-fhswvV] modulename ...
 -f (or --force) forces a module unload, and may crash your
    machine. This requires the Forced Module Removal option
    when the kernel was compiled.
 -h (or --help) prints this help text
 -s (or --syslog) says use syslog, not stderr
 -v (or --verbose) enables more messages
 -V (or --version) prints the version code
 -w (or --wait) begins a module removal even if it is used
    and will stop new users from accessing the module (so it
    should eventually fall to zero).

I get this when typing the command : sudo rmmod $(lsmod | cut -f 1 -d ' ' | grep iwl)

Please explain? I currently have wireless working,sometimes, longer than 2 or 3 minuets a go! i dont know how, but the problem is that its going veryyyyy slow, about a quarter of what it should, and still stops recieving data after a while. Do you have any more ideas ATH? Thanks again for all your assistance.
