I will also do testing with that version.

For clarity can I refer you and your firmware releases in the bug report?

I'm finishing my tests and will update the bug report ASAP.

Turns out the bad throughput was the result of a failure in the switch port.

With Ben's firmware the VLAN support is working fine with security.

 Old thread but I think the issue is still present.

 I'm running a setup with VLANs with WDS and ath10k cards.

 To make it work both cards must be loaded in rawmode, AP
 and Sta, and with no security.

 I'm using a OpenWrt trunk r49941 and the most recent firmware,
 10.2.4.70.58, from Kalle ath10k firmware tree.

 Although it works the throughput is very bad.
 Are there any alternatives to improve the throughput.

Just file the bug with the ID 187241 -  VLAN support in ATH10k
Feel free to ask for adicional info.
I did not mention any names in the bug report fell free to take credit

You can file it under Drivers/network-wireless, AFAIK we don't have any

Thanks for the fast reply but it only solves "half"  the problem.

Now the connection between the AP and the Sta can be secure and the

Unfortunatly the the throughput is still bad.

You have a complex setup, so I think it would be best if you could break it into
simpler parts to test.

First, try just STA to AP, no vlans, and see if you get useful throughput.

Then try with VLANs

Then, try with WDS.

Then try with WDS and vlans.

In STA to AP mode with VLANs, it performed well for me.

Thanks,
Ben




iperf Done.



Please note that it is very likely you will have to use same MAC address
for the VLAN devices that the underlying station uses in order for this to
work.


Can you please elaborate more?
My setup  is the folowing.
The connection between the AP and Sta is in WDS
For the moment all devices are in the same VLAN.

client1 --- SW1  AP .. Sta  SW2 --- client2

Thanks for the fast reply but it only solves "half"  the problem.

Now the connection between the AP and the Sta can be secure and the
driver doesn't need to be loaded in rawmode.

Unfortunatly the the throughput is still bad.

My setup  is the folowing.
The connection between the AP and Sta is in WDS
For the moment all devices are in the same VLAN.

client1 --- SW1  AP .. Sta  SW2 --- client2

Looks to me like 10.4 defaults to the right value, but possibly there are other
issues with it.  I tested my CT 10.4 and it worked OK with vlans for me.

at least my firmware.  I have re-compiled w/out that flag set, and it appears
to work for me.

Please download this firmware, rename it firmware-2.bin, make sure you 
remove/rename
any firmware-5.bin (etc) so mine will load, and see if that fixes your problem.

Please note that it is very likely you will have to use same MAC address
for the VLAN devices that the underlying station uses in order for this to work.

Hi all,

I'm running a setup with VLANs with WDS and ath10k cards.

To make it work both cards must be loaded in rawmode, AP

I'm using a OpenWrt trunk r49941 and the most recent firmware,
10.2.4.70.58, from Kalle ath10k firmware tree.

Although it works the throughput is very bad.
Are there any alternatives to improve the throughput.

Re: [OpenWrt-Devel] ATH10K VLAN firmware issue

The bug appears that vlan-tx-stripping is unconditionally enabled in
at least my firmware.  I have re-compiled w/out that flag set, and it appears
to work for me.

Please download this firmware, rename it firmware-2.bin, make sure you 
remove/rename
any firmware-5.bin (etc) so mine will load, and see if that fixes your problem.

Can someone file a bug to bugzilla about this so that all the info is
properly stored? The more comprehensive the report is the better.

Since the capability is implemented in software you might be testing the 
limit of your router's CPU i/o speed.
