I think at least part of my issue with b43 could have been caused by overclocking. I brought the CPU back to its normal state, and the wireless seemed to connect better. Now the problem is that it wouldn't get an IP. It did at first, but then dropped it: No ProbeResp from current AP 00:0f:66:57:f3:74 - assume out of range And after that I don't think I was able to connect more than maybe once. I took it closer to the AP and wired it up and updated to the latest -21 kernel in proposed. Now it's staying connected, but the signal is bouncing around anywhere between 88 and 112 out of 100 signal strength, and its claiming a rate of 1Mb/s. I can force it to 54M sudo iwconfig rate 54M and then iwconfig shows that rate, but network manager still has 1 (and the Driver line is blank). Also, the network seems a bit slow. I'm getting this on the other card, too. I'm planning on testing with a fresh install and updating to -21 to see if that alone will get the card working, and how well. I'll also take this one back to where it was to see if it's related to signal strength. Question: if I rewrite the SPROM as Larry helped me do, when the kernel fix is booted, does that override what I have done or does it just use it (assuming it's right)?
