Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):
I did not get the time to run your command, but for sure, there are many
other WiFi networks in the vicinity, thus probably some of them are on the
same channel. I tested with ad-hoc and ad-hoc demo mode. In this latter
case, is the BSSID still used? Is an ad-hoc demo network equivalent to an
ad-hoc network with a BSSID of 00:00:00:00:00:00?
Next question: when you say that RSSI is not used much in the rate
algorithm, is there only one rate computed for all connections (ie TCP/IP
connections) or is the rate computed specific to one connections (based on
MAC of course, not IP addr.)? Maybe some insight on what data are used by
the rate algorithm could help.
