Wireless connection slower then wired

I have an USR8022 wireless router and can't say I am happy with it.
Sometimes it takes a long time to "syncronize" with the router and
lately it is giving me a lot of problems with my wireless network.
When I try to use my wireless notebook (centrino with and Intel Pro
Mini Pci) I have slow access. If I test the connection with pingPlotter I get
pings over 1000 starting in the 1st hop. At first I thought it was a problems
with my ISP but when I try with the LAN connection (wired network), I get
decent pings.
I suspect this is a problem with the router but ... how can I be sure.
Anyone experienced anything like this?

http://pwp.netcabo.pt/lfmartins/www.tvcabo.pt_wired.png the results of the Pig
Plotter.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Did you see that the DNS name is not resolved in the wireless ping....?

Looks like a lot of packet loss....
Try a firmware upgrade on router + pccard
Try a pingtest with don't fragment bit to determine the best MTU-size:
ping -l 1500 -f remote_host etc..

Good luck!

I did see it and think it ain't important.
I have all hardware with latest drivers/firmware, including router to
the latest 4.2
I just confirmed that the problem is with the router. I used a Linksys
AP (WAP11) connected with RJ45 to the router, I then switched wireless network
to use the Linksys connection instead and got similar results as I get when I
am "wired". Same router, same wireless network card and different AP, means
that the routers's AP is not working properly, right?

I have been trying to contact USR support but they seem to be out of
business.
