I've played with the iwi driver from there.

It seems there is some kind of initialization problem as it only works 
if I have loaded/unloaded NDIS first. However without a previous 
load/unload of NDIS it fails.

I haven't digged further into why it fails, maybe its the downloaded 
firmware, maybe its some kind of enableing code needed on this Acer 
Travelmate 8000 dunno...

However, when it works, it seems to have better performance than the 
NDIS driver, is have ping turnaround down to 1.1ms whereas NDIS has 
around 1.8ms, transferrate seems to be allmost on par though, with iwi 
having its nose a bit ahead...
