Hi. I am currently using FreeBSD 7.2-RELEASE. I have a problem with wireless networks. I am using FreeBSD as an access point with wpa encryption. Almost %30 packets are loses when I ping the ap. It's very painfully to use ssh connection with this ap. Do you have any idea about packet loses?
My adapter is Edimax 7128. My ping result from a Linux machine: $ ping 192.168.1.1 PING 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.354 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.309 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=4 ttl=64 time=0.306 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=5 ttl=64 time=0.272 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=6 ttl=64 time=0.293 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=8 ttl=64 time=35.3 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=9 ttl=64 time=0.302 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=10 ttl=64 time=0.270 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=13 ttl=64 time=0.304 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=14 ttl=64 time=0.268 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=15 ttl=64 time=0.270 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=17 ttl=64 time=0.307 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=18 ttl=64 time=0.310 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=19 ttl=64 time=0.268 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=21 ttl=64 time=0.469 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=22 ttl=64 time=0.303 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=23 ttl=64 time=0.269 ms ^C --- 192.168.1.1 ping statistics --- 23 packets transmitted, 17 received, 26% packet loss, time 21999ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.268/2.364/35.324/8.240 ms Other informations about this machine: # uname -a FreeBSD onur-bsd 7.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 7.2-RELEASE #0: Fri May 1 08:49:13 UTC 2009 r...@walker.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 # ifconfig ral0 list caps ral0=2181e500<IBSS,HOSTAP,TXPMGT,SHSLOT,SHPREAMBLE,MONITOR,WPA1,WPA2,BGSCAN> # ifconfig ral0 ral0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 2290 ether 00:0e:2e:ff:6b:e4 inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect mode 11g <hostap> status: associated ssid ONURNET channel 1 (2412 Mhz 11g) bssid 00:0e:2e:ff:6b:e4 authmode WPA privacy MIXED deftxkey 2 TKIP 2:128-bit TKIP 3:128-bit txpower 50 scanvalid 60 bgscan bgscanintvl 300 bgscanidle 250 roam:rssi11g 7 roam:rate11g 5 protmode CTS dtimperiod 1 # cat /etc/hostapd.conf interface=ral0 debug=1 ctrl_interface=/var/run/hostapd ctrl_interface_group=wheel ssid=ONURNET wpa=1 wpa_passphrase=mypassword wpa_key_mgmt=WPA-PSK wpa_pairwise=CCMP TKIP _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
