I don't know what I'm talking about. This was a miscommunication from the systems team. I think it was because EVM targets were too high, but LDPC fixes that, see below. > > Sounds like a rate control or reporting bug then. > > Please drop this. > > > Ok, thanks. Actually, can you apply the v2 (cfg80211: add bitrate for 20MHz MCS 9) of this? Systems guys confirmed they use MCS 9 @ 20MHz when LDPC is enabled. Also confirmed bitrate should be ok.
