Hi, I realise it is quite an old thread, but I have this exact issue of retry packets when injecting seen here:
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.ath9k.devel/14872. I'd just like to know if this requires the driver to be patched or if it is something that can be passed in through the header while injecting the packet? I'm creating a beacon packet, but it is sending 9 retries with each packet. I found an example packet injector script (https://gist.github.com/jonhoo/7780260#file-packet-generator-cpp-L117) that mentioned building the radio tap header with 2 extra bytes (0x80,0x00) on the end to turn ack off. I tried this, but the retries still come through. A bit of further digging and I realised the retries was an additional flag that needed to be included in the present flags bitmap. So I tried the below setting the retry flag to 0. But that didn't work either. This is the header I'm currently sending 0x00,0x00, //revision 0x13,0x00, //size 0x2e,0x48,0x80,0x00, //bitmap of flags included 0x00, //flags 0x02, //rate 0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00, //channel 0x00, //signal 0x00, //antenna 0x00,0x00, //RX flags 0x00 //retries If anyone could lend a bit if assistance or more detail on how to implement this without patching the driver it would be greatly appreciated.
