Adrian, thanks for taking an interest. Today I built the current Madwifi driver for Fedora Kernel 2.6.38.8-32.fc15.i686. The ath5k problem seems to be at the tx side. If I run the iperf server on the ath5k node and the iperf client at the madwifi node (identical hardware config), I consistently get a significant speedup compared to ath5k-ath5k. The only difference is, which module is blacklisted.
I have experimented with the RTS and fragmentation threshold setting without success. Now I'm somewhat lost. The problem is either ath5k or mac80211. -- Regards Joerg ----- Orifinal Mail ---- > Von: Adrian Chadd <adr...@freebsd.org> > An: jpo <pommn...@yahoo.com> > CC: linux-wirel...@vger.kernel.org > Gesendet: Mittwoch, den 22.
