2[m] form AP - Link Quality=98/100 SL=-25 dBm NL=-73 dBm 10[m] form AP - Link Quality=45/100 SL=-70 dBm NL=-73 dBm pcmia atheros shows here SL=-70 NL=-95 15[m] form AP - (seems be on edge of range) Link Quality=35/100 SL=-78 dBm NL=-73 dBm pcmia atheros shows here SL=-86 NL=-95, works fine though on 5Mbps Is it strange to have lower signal level than noise level ? Does current version uses only 11MBps with 4318 ? What is interpretation of link quality ? (in atheros it seems to be difference between signal and noise levels) Best regards, -- Mateusz Korniak _______________________________________________ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev
