Hi,
In my AP , there are two radios, one ath9k based module WLE200NX and second
ath10k based
WLE600VX.
I configured both the radios as AP in IEEE 802.11a 40 MHz HT mode and performed
throughput test.
Measured throughput with ath9k is 164Mbps while with ath10k it is 137Mbps. I
could not
understand the reason of this drop(27 Mbps)?
My test setup was inside RF-Shield. There was no interference and system was
associated
at 300Mbps in both cases.
ath10k driver was taken from ath10k git and firmware version is
firmware-5.bin_10.2.4.70.66.
ath9k drives was taken from stable backport release backport-4.4.2-1.
kernel version : 3.12
openwrt version : Chaos Calmer 15.05.0
Please suggest me how can I increase the throughput of my AP.
Does it work any better with different firmware/software, or is ath10k just
always slower for you?
Yes. Measured throughput in the same configuration was 193 Mbps when used
ath10k driver
from backport stable release backport-4.4.2-1 and firmware version
firmware-5.bin_10.2.4.70.63-2. But this version is not stable for ac mode and
it does
not support MESH. Please suggest appropriate ath10k driver version and firmware.
I would try just changing the firmware and see if it is the firmware or the
driver change that causes decreased performance.
How much attenuation are you using?
Received Signal strength is -38 dBm and tx power is 5dBm in all these testcases.
That would seem to be a good RSSI, so attenuation is probably not the issue.
Thanks,
Ben
