Please refer to this http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-wireless/msg52239.htmlSujith's patches can be used to test basic AP mode functionality. We are working on addressing the buffering mode cleanly and the new set of patches should be available by first week of January 2011. Let me know if you are interested in doing some verification.Can you explain what are the limitations of not having the buffering mode working?For what I can understand, that only affects clients with power saving enabled. Is this correct?Yes correct, developers are working to bring that in firmware to make it perfect.i have the same USB device (TL-WN722N) as well. i'd like to try the simpler patches in my home network... what are the consequences of not properly handling power save mode? i have multiple android phones that i'm guessing make use of this feature; does it simply translate to dropped/missed packets, or something more? thanks, C AnthonyHi, I have been testing it with an HTC desire and the device disconnect and reconects every 10 seconds unless there is an active data connection. It's not usable*Hi please use the latest wireless testing which has some important fixes. * Sujith had also sent RFC patches to mailing list for enabling AP mode with the updated firmware.
Hello,I have applied the patches that Sujith posted last night with the latest compat drivers and my HTC now works without issues. I have also loaded it with 6 more stations and it worked fine for a while but after a few minutes I got a kernel trace.
