Speed Issues with WMP54G

[Cattata]

I have the Linksys WMP54G(ver. 4) wireless PCI card. I just installed it on a new system with windows xp pro. The problem I have is my transmit rate starts out at 54 Mbps. As soon as I go into a game, or do any CPU related activity, it drops down to around 10Mbps. This makes playing nay online game impossbile. I just installed a utility that came with the card and it shows my recieve rate as 11Mbps. I'm assuming that theres something wrong with both my transmit and receiving rates.

Any help would be really appreciated. Thank you.

What is the capability of your router? If its an older 802.11 b router than you going to settle in at 11mbs no?
