yes I had been using the "Short OEM card" AKA "World card (integrated)" AKA 
"Stub Card" AKA  "The one with no printed circuit antenna and a diversity 
port".  This is the card we had been using in every AP or ROR up until we 
started using prism cards and KN-200 boards. 

I had a much easier time replicating this problem than I have had remedying it. 
 I find it hard to believe that Karlnet has had a different experience. 

KN-200 w/ Demarc 200mW prism card ->  KN-50 stock Agere card = Packet loss on 
bench or in field.  
NO encryption.

if it is the short OEM card you can't downgrade the firm was it's a
different chipset ( I think )
