Thanks Mohammed, I am a newbie in wifi driver dev. Could you guide me how to specify the rate control algorithm?
I also observed much better uplink performance than downlink. The uplink could be up to 28Mbps. But isn't this a little bit unintuitive? thanks On Thu, Jan 13, 2011 at 12:40 AM, Mohammed Shafi <shafi.wirel...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Thu, Jan 13, 2011 at 8:43 AM, Tao Jin <jintao....@gmail.com> wrote: >> Dear all, >> >> I have a Linksys WRT160NL router, which has a 802.11n chip, and runs >> OpenWRT firmware with ath9k driver.
