f12 - updated as of today.
Anyone else notice that the information popup (right click & select "Connection Information") for nm-applet shows 'Unknown' for current speed when connected to 802.11n - but for 11g it works fine ?

Perhaps a change in the driver that doesn't report speed when running N? What does "iwlist wlan0 rate" show? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer ricks@nerd.com - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 22643734 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - I don't suffer from insanity...I enjoy every minute of it! - ----------------------------------------------------------------------

Shows no speed information either - this is iwl4965 - there have been a ton of driver improvements in 2.6.32 so I suspect trying the newer kernel is the next step.
Thanks

I can confirm that the 2.6.32 kernel fixes this and the speed is once again reported- I am hopeful it will fix the bug triggered by large traffic flow as well.
Works now in both iwlist wlan0 rate as well as nm-applet.
