Hi
I have a little problem after upgrading my HTPC.
Everytime i boot my wlan0 rate is set to 1Mb/s.
I tryed to use IWOPTS in my network profil but it doesn't work.
Can someone help me?

I have the rt73usb firmware as well and I'm using the rt25x00 driver, it works fine with a similar "IWOPTS" line. Are you using the same driver, and if not you may wish to try that. You can also try
IWOPTS=bgscan 0 rate 54M mode managed essid YourESSIDHere
What I printed above is what I use to set my rate & other options.

Hi
I use this firmware
[root@Mediabox ~]# pacman -Qs rt | grep fw
local/rt2x00-rt71w-fw 1.8-3
And the driver in 2.6.29.1
[root@Mediabox ~]# pacman -Qs kernel26

The Linux Kernel and modules
local/kernel26-firmware 2.6.29-1 (base)

Fixed!
I don't know why but IWOPTS doen't work for me, but IWCONFIG does.

replace IWOPTS with IWCONFIG xD
I looked in scripts, and didnt see any IWOPTS variable processed, but IWCONFIG is, so just renamed IWOPTS into IWCONFIG and it works, only problem is that dhcp failes for wifi, but thats second problem.
