Can you give more detailed information?
Connection seems to fluctuate between 12-54mbit, sometimes goes to 1mbit 
and completely stalls. However, sometimes it also  completely stalls on 
36 (or any other speed) and I can't ping anything. I initially thought 
its the wireless router, so i bought a new one from different 
manufacturer but it does the samething.

About 50% of times these messages:

acx0: basic rates: 0x0027
acx0: join BSS/IBSS on channel 11
come up like 7-8 times before it reaches handshake or whatever its doing.

and sometimes also messages like acx0: tx failed or something like that 
come up.
