Hi Bob, I have tried your patch as I get many errors as in subject when I transfer huge files (I'm using as a test a 1GB file). With the patch I have the same errors. I'm using wireless-testing.git (v2.6.33-rc2-47131-gc72a18c) in managed mode (no AP). Fabio On Wednesday 11 November 2009

[ath5k-devel] problems with wireless network data transfer

2009-01-11 Thread Fabio Rossi
