Same here - the way I fixed it was to switch our prism54 WLAN access point 
from master into ad-hoc mode. This may just be a workaround, but it works 
for me...

It is interesting to note that in ad-hoc mode, I can do full-speed
transfers between any two hosts without problems - initially, I had only 
switched over to ad-hoc to avoid going via the AP for local data transfer, 
but now also full-speed transfers from/to the AP work.

Cheers,

  Richard
