(Get the code!)
I can confirm that this also affects the Netgear MA521 PCMCIA card using the rtl8180 chipset - I have excellent reception status using ndiswrapper under Hardy, however see only 5-10% under Intrepid (~3' from the router).
I also note the following, possibly related, symptom with the open source driver in Intrepid; once connected to a wireless network I am no longer able to manually scan for wireless networks using "iwlist scan" (note that I am able to scan before the connection is made).
