Here are the driver versions:

I set the AP to TKIP only:

Cell 02 - Address: 00:01:E3:0D:22:9A
     ESSID:"neutron"
     Protocol:IEEE 802.11b
     Mode:Master
     Channel:11
     Encryption key:on
     Bit Rates:11 Mb/s
     Extra: Rates (Mb/s): 1 2 5.5 11
     Quality:64  Signal level:0  Noise level:0
     IE: WPA Version 1
     Group Cipher : TKIP
     Pairwise Ciphers (1) : TKIP
     Authentication Suites (1) : PSK
     Extra: Last beacon: 816ms ago

(changed ESSID and password since last post)
But this makes no visible difference:
