Hi,

I have a kamikaze 7.07 running on a IXP422/5 machine and a AUSU router WL-500g running white russian.
I have two different settings to compare the speed.
Option 1: Asus WL-500g as an AP, and Kamikaze 7.07 as a sta (client) mode.
Option 2: Both run at ad-hoc mode.

And ping from one machine to another to test wireless link speed;

get result:

Option 1: Reply from 192.168.1.1 bytes=1500 time = 7ms TTL=64;
Option 2: Reply from 192.168.1.1 bytes=1500 time = 133ms TTL=64;

Why ad-hoc mode takes about 20 times (133ms vs 7 ms) longer?

Any comments on it?

I have the same problem when I use my Kamikaze Linksys WRT54GS v1.1 in client ad-hoc mode. The performance are really bad!

Are your WLAN and LAN bridged?

This is know to have problems, see:

Thanks for the link!!!!!
Now the performances for adhoc are normal

What have you done to improve it? Just did not bridge Lan and WAN

I have created a new network.
I have bridged the wifi with this new network
I have launched the command found into the link.

Would you be able to post your codes here and share with us please?

Thanks.
