Hello, 1. I don't know if MACTIME gets set or not. How do I check that? 2. ACKs and beacons are received perfectly, yes. Not sure about RTS/CTS, although I do remember seeing RTS packets in a pcap file I made with the card. 3. The locally-sent packets arrive back correctly, both those that have been generated by the system on wlan0, and those that are injected through Radiotap.
Also, disabling HW crypto fixes the problem. My proposal: We should automatically disable HW crypto when the card is operating in multiple-interfaces mode, or if there is a monitor interface present. Sincerely, Gábor Stefanik P.S. Please CC the b43 development mailing list next time.
