Comment 223 for bug 401126

Battery powered performance is abysmal. Works for about 5 minutes and then goes down. My Tomato based router does not complain about insufficient power from the laptop (at least what I could catch so far) this time. Instead I see problems on my laptop's side. It complains that signal level from the router falls down below 10%, which I believe to be false, since I have three more devices around the house connected wirelessly.

AC powered performance is pretty good and surpasses my Broadcom based USB adapter in both average speed and stability.
