[ath9k-devel] Ath9k performance testing results (AR9380)

Ok, so thanks for all the suggestions and numbers that folks have posted in the 'wifi throughput tests' thread. Short answer: 352Mbps download, 270Mbps upload (not concurrent). We set up two systems, both with WPEA-127N NICs (AR9380). The Station machine is dual-core Atom, 3.3.7+ 32-bit kerne

[ath9k-devel] DISABLE AMPDU AGGREGATION

2012-05-29 Thread Stratos Keranidis
HI, I checked in the archives and found that a proper way to disable AMPDU aggregation is to replace these two lines in /drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/init.c of function ath9k_init_misc() sc->sc_flags |= SC_OP_TXAGGR; sc->sc_flags |= SC_OP_RXAGGR; with the following: sc->sc_flags &= ~SC_OP_TX
