Hi,

we have modified the link quality values reported by DriverLoader in 
2.10 to provide more realistic values to NetworkManager included in 
Fedora Core 3. In order words, the link quality is probably still the 
same as in DriverLoader 2.09, since we have just modified the values 
returned by DriverLoader.

Please send at support at linuxant.com the output the output of 'dumpdiag'. 
Type the following in a root shell:

---
dldrconfig --dumpdiag
---

Just send us the generated file located in /tmp ('driverloaderdiag.txt').

While you are connect to an access point under Linux, please send us the 
output of the following commands in a root shell :

---
iwconfig
iwlist scanning
---

You should obtain the link quality information reported in Windows XP 
using the same Windows XP driver.

Regards,
