Clearly F-S' website was having a dizzy spell when I was attempting to interrogate it yesterday afternoon
The version you cite is indeed newer than the one that was already installed on our lappie and I'll have another go today at grabbing it from F-S' site to see if that helps.

...which is the one I snagged and tried last night, sadly, to no avail.
I also unearthed this
snippet which suggests there are some power-management mode-related issues with this chipset and certain (unspecified) APs, however this proved fruitless, also.
I then spent a little while last night reflashing the router with a stable release of DD-WRT (V23 SP2) to see if that improved things at all, again, it didn't. I had been using the genuine Linksys v4.x version, previously.
What has become apparent is that we have neighbours with a shiny new BT Homehub (Thomson hardware...?) on channel 11 as well as someone else nearby with an unknown AP, also on channel 11... I've forced our router onto channel 6 in response but I'm wondering if the general amount of 2.4GHz traffic is an issue and that our WRT54GS is getting stomped by our neighbours..?
Cheers for now, Rik.
