Do you happen to know where iwconfig obtains this information? I've looked briefly, and there seems to be some mention of /proc/net/wireless What does this look like on your system? How do the contents relate to the output of iwconfig? I'm pretty sure that the Net-SNMP code doesn't refer to this file. As far as I can tell (and Robert is the expert on the new IF-MIB code), the interface speed is determined using an ioctl call (at least for Ethernet-based interfaces). What does the SNMP agent report for your system, and how does this compare with the iwconfig figures?
