Hi Ben,
i did some experiments today.
1. change the node C to AP mode (using same MAC), performance of A to B is good
2. keep node C as adhoc mode but chaneg the cell-id and ssid.
performance is deteriorated
I am just wondering if any packet of adhoc mode(beacon? probe request?
probe response) will screw up wifi network?
In general, I see lower throughput with IBSS. Among other things,
it does not allow AMSDU in ath10k, apparently due to chipset bugs.
Aside from AMSDU, I'm not sure why else it might have issues.
Whenever you start talking performance (or specific bugs for that matter)
in ath10k, you should mention what firmware and driver you are using.
Thanks,
Ben

Hi Ben,
I also geuss that mignt be BSSID mask issue, however i have no idea
about the patten
I can find bssid_mask function in ath5k and ath9k but not in ath10k.
Do your suggest me to use XX:XX:XX:YY:YY:XX, XX should be same and YY
could be different?
Please try something that works properly with the way ath9k does it's
mask and see if that fixes your problem in ath10k.
Basically, if your NIC has an address: 00 11 22 33 44 55, then change the
33 and/or 44
octets when creating secondary vifs. This assumes you buy your NICs in
batches and the
low octet is likely unique.
As long as you have a unique octet among all of your radios in the local RF
environment, then you should be fine.
Somewhere there was once a security related document on how to screw up
wifi networks by setting a mask to purposefully cause troubles....you might
try to find that and see if it provides some more precise details on
the masking algorithm.
Thanks,
Ben
Thanks.

Your probably have BSSID mask collision. Rule of thumb is to leave
all octets the same except the second and third (from the right)
byte. That usually gives you unique masks assuming the right-most
byte is unique for your radios.

Hi,
I am working on IBSS mode by using ath10k. However i met some problem
about the performance issue
First of all, i set up two nodes, A (74:DA:38:19:19:DC) and B
(74:DA:38:06:E1:96) and run iperf.
i can get around 170 Mbps form A to B
Then, i turn on the third node C(74:DA:38:06:E1:BE).
The performance is deteriorated to around 30Mbps.
If i turn off node C, the performance go back to 170 Mbps.
At the same environment and same devices, i jsut change the mac of B
to (74:DA:38:06:E1:B2)
Everything is good.
No matter node c is on or off, the performance always keep on 170Mbps.
Anyone have any idea about this problem?
Jay
