As I say ifconfig has data on the performance of the wifi on my laptop.
PERIOD!

Why don't you just post the output on your computer
of ifconfig and iwconfig?

Here's mine.
As you will see, the information is completely different.

[tim@carrie tim]$ ifconfig

I can do that and will. I have to do it on my laptop, save in a file and then get here to this computer and in a message. It is harder than it sounds. You do #ifconfig as root so that has to be fixed.
