Same here.

NIC:
Belkin F5D7000 ver. 5100

AP:
Linksys WRT54G

NIC was installed automatically as ath0 by madwifi, within Edgy. Network Manager (applet) shows a mere one bar of strength (14% and less), whereas my laptop always shows all four bars. Right now my connection speed says 2Mb/s. (ack! I paid for 54! ;)

Both the router and NIC are 802.11b/g, though my initial suspicion is that the card is operating in b mode for some reason. Note that the card works fine, at full capacity, under XP on the same box... unfortunately, I can't just use XP instead, that's not a fair trade-off.
