It is labeled as a Linksys WPC54G, ver. 3. Larry,
just one more question: if you have time to test again r5.1, not a stress test, a wget is enough, could you please report info about rx and tx_ring usages? Those lines like the following: [219861.208427] b43-phy222 debug: DMA-32 rx_ring: Used slots 8/64, Failed frames 0/0 = 0.0%, Average tries 0.00 [219861.216070] b43-phy222 debug: DMA-32 tx_ring_AC_BE: Used slots 128/128, Failed frames 1600/3398448 = 0.0%, Average tries 1.19 Cheers, -FG _______________________________________________ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev
