I did some mmio traces and checked what happens when changing txpower. 1) values in N-PHY tables 0x1A and 0x1B are changed, e.g., for txpower 5 and txpower 10 they are the same, for txpower 15 they are different so I guess there exist thresholds. Unfortunately I don't even know what these tables are. 2) value in PHY register 0x1ea is changed according to the configured power value. As I can read in specs this is the TX power control target power for both radios: e.g., for txpower 5 => 0x2020, for txpower 10 => 0x2c2c, for txpower 15 => 0x3c3c. Then I switched to b43 and load a custom firmware to analyze how register 0x1ea is setup and it holds always 0x0000. I forced it to be 0x2c2c and magically the throughput increased to ~ 3Mb/s. Unfortunately when I try 0x3c3c (corresponding to txpower 15) I get only phy-transmission errors. Hope can help. -Francesco _______________________________________________ b43-dev mailing list b43-dev@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/b43-dev
