Gesagt getan, habe jetzt diesen USB Adapter am Laufen:
http://www.amazon.de/TP-Link-TL-WN822N-Netzwerk-Adapter-300Mb/dp/B003VIY03Q/ref=sr_1_1?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1341380845&sr=1-1
und der funktioniert mit meinem gepatchten hostapd (fast) einwandfrei. Leider habe ich keine Möglichkeit, den dort angepriesenen 300 Mbit Modus zu testen, (mangels Client mit 2 Antennen) aber die Sendeleistung ist wirklich enorm, hat sich mehr als verdoppelt im Vergleich zum internen Chip, was aber auch kein Wunder sein sollte.
Letzt Nacht viel mein Server kurzzeitig komplett aus.. werde das weiter beobachten, aber ich denke, dass das schon eine Optimal-Lösung ist.
