Downloading a single file isn't necessarily going to do the same "stress
test" as an rsync trying to download 100000+ files...

Is it always with the same rsync server or have you tried different
ones?

Also, someone mentioned the channel, did you check your AP and card are
using the same channel? (This may be a long shot...)

Did you try a different driver for ndiswrapper?  Did you try the same
rsync server with a different card?  I know you don't think its the
card, but I would still rule it out if I could.

I don't know what else to suggest - if its the rsync server then don't
use it!  If not, then try playing around with different hardware /
drivers until you isolate the problem...
