I've tried switching between firmwares 410.2160, 478.104 and 508.1092, without any difference. I've moved away from AP, the RX speed went down to 11.6 Mb/s (tested for 5 minutes), but not visible problems (received 414 MB). I guess Szymon can have affected BCM4318, will I don't. From https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=24208 : > b43 in Backfire works on most BCM4306-BCM4318-based cards, included master > (AP) mode. Unfortunately there are some models of BCM4318 which suffer from > transmission problems and are unstable as a result, mostly noticeably when > running as AP. Others models of BCM4318 seems to run fine. -- Rafał _______________________________________________ b43-dev mailing list b43-dev@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/b43-dev
