Hang on, did I write so? I do not have choppiness problem with Linux. The
"router hanging problem" that I had on Linux is different. That I
explained on a separate thread. These two are completely separate issues.

See, using the same router, I don't face "choppiness" problem as explained
on any other OS including NetBSD 5.1 and Linux (Fedora, Maemo).

If I use wired connection to the same router I don't face "choppiness"
problem on 6.0_BETA either.

I am fully convinced that router is not playing any role in the
"choppiness" problem. To give you that confidence, I'll use my mobile's 3G
connection via USB (no router in picture) tonight and confirm.
