big delays in 802.11b
like 500ms and higher with small traffic around 300-500kbit/s, just with
almost 0 traffic delays a good.

wifi1: Use hw queue 9 for beacons
wifi1: Atheros 5212: mem=0x80080000, irq=9
It looks like problem with cck timing or that CRC error, it's running
outdoor ap mode with
athctrl -i wifi1 -d 10000
most clients are ovislink 1120 or 5460
same error occurs indoor on the table distances
Thank you
