Is it possible in WXP to have an ad hoc network that works at speeds higher then 802.11b speeds (11Mbps). When putting several 802.11g devices in an ad hoc network they should operate at higher speeds, but they don't. They still operate at 11Mbps (we've done several tests with different vendors and even measured the speed itself) no matter what.
Is there a bug in de Wireless Zero configuration of XP which makes g-devices unable to work at higher speeds then 11Mbps.
Make note: in infrastructure mode we've been able to get speeds of around 16Mbps (ftp-transfer), in ad hoc this speeds were around 8Mbps (at the max)
Have you tried to install Sp2 RC on your windows xp? Normaly it should work
at higher speed. So is described on MS sites

I haven't tried installing SP2 yet (due to some incompatibility issues at hand).
I can't find any mention of the higher speeds on the MS sites as you described.
Is there any chance anyone has a source where I can clearly find the statement? (in our research it is needed not only to describe the 'problem' but also to show that MS fixed it, or will fix it).
