@Sander, thank you for your feed back. will it to the trick only by setting txpower, without nohwcrypt?

The connection with this device is fast and stable, but seems to drop after a certain amount of data has been transmitted. The easiest way to reproduce it is to download something large. I can always reproduce it by downloading a torrent. After about 300-400MB, it seems like the wireless dongle hangs and the connection doesn't work anymore. At this point, network commands such as iwconfig freeze, and it's also impossible to reboot or turn off the computer. However, if the wireless dongle is unplugged and plugged again, everything's back to normal. The module is set with nohwcrypt=1. If this option is not set, the connection drops much faster. Also, I've noticed that the latency is lower with nohwcrypt=1 (using speedtest.net, the latency without hardware encryption is consistently 3 times less).
