Do you have similar thoughts about ath9k or are you certain that with ath9k you are getting full power or do you not have any experience with ath9k? IOW, I'm not sure whether the stock firmware is correct or if OpenWrt is correct; I feel they are different with regard to power, but haven't come up with a definitive test of that yet. _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
