I have changed my config, works fine now. the card works at a speed that 
  is good enough to work with. i transfer files over network via smb at 
about 5 Mbit/s. This is much better than before. FTPing on the same 
machinge lies between 300 and 1100 kb/s. This could be the distance to 
the AP (about 10m in House). The rate is between 36 and 54 Mbit most the 
time. One thing which is still a bit nasty: When playing mp3's or movies 
via network they hang, i don't know why. this happens with xmms, notun, 
juk, etc. the NIC doesn't load the song all the time, it loads always 
just a part of it. Any ideas therefor too because it doesn't happen with 
wired lan.
Before i forget: I'm using 0.8 now
Thank you
