Hi,

Yes the reported RSSI's are pretty much identical on each port.
Flipping the default antenna doesn't change the behavior.

One interesting observation with the fast diversity operation with CCK is that 
the frame error rate on the non-default port is up a little, whereas on the 
default port it is perfect (it is in a cable + atten). When switching the 
default port the poor frame error rate follows the non-default port. I guess 
this is a symptom of the internal "switching", whatever that involves.

To get some form of Rx diversity working for OFDM I've been experimenting with 
switching the default antenna rapidly, and then pausing for a bit if we're 
Rx'ing. So far it has been somewhat successful, but as with the observed CCK 
fast diversity mentioned above, there is an increase in frame error rate 
(though in my case it is not antenna specific).

Thanks
Brett

Hi,

Does the reported RSSI on both antennas actually match? Or is the non-main 
antenna RSSI crappy?

If you flip the default antenna over (btu not disable diversity) does it still 
behave this way?
