The quoted command above, which changes the antenna gain by about 33.5dBi, is a quote from your mail that explains the ssb-sprom bug. > An increase of this magnitude is not a wise increase considering that > an increase of 10dbi is a signal gain of 1000 times of all the > ambiants (including noise). > > An increase of 1-3dbi should make a difference and it might need a > decrease rather than an increase, I'm talking about performance > tuning, not going nuts with an increase so strong that the noise > level becomes so overwhelming that there is no way the signal would > not be drowned out. You should seriously go to a good bookstore and buy a book that explains what an "antenna gain" is. However, as an alternative you can simply increase the antenna gain value of one of your cards by 3dBi. You'll notice what happens then. You'll probably be surprised. :) (However, you'll probably explain the results of the test with your weird noise theories. hm...) -- Greetings Michael. _______________________________________________ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list Bcm43xx-dev@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev
