I just wiped my etch installation and replaced it with a fresh lenny
installation. The installer auto-detected my wifi card and used the
rt2500pci driver.

By default it achieves:
 - 1Mbps rate (as reported by iwconfig - I can only download at max.
   ~20KBps)
 - approx "50% link quality"

When I manually set it to "rate 11M", the reported bit rate goes to 11M,
the real download speed improves by about 50% and the "link quality"
goes to about 70%, but it's still a far cry from what the card can
achieve.

It works just fine using ndiswrapper...
