You might already be able to get much better wireless behavior by trying
out a more recent version (e.g. current trunk). Maybe your config change
will turn out to be completely unnecessary, maybe not.
As I understood your point (please correct me if I'm wrong):
* The problem with packet loss may be caused not by noisy environment.
It may be a bug (like this
https://www.gargoyle-router.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=3836) and it
may be fixed in current trunk.
I'm not speaking based on one random test that I did at home, I'm
speaking from experience of knowing the protocol, maintaining wireless
drivers and working with many different setups and environments.
Comparing fragmentation on wireless to MTU changes on ethernet makes no
sense whatsoever. 802.11 behaves *very* differently.
Could you suggest any further reading?
* Changing Fragmentation Threshold and RTS/CTS Threshold may strongly
reduce throughput in some cases, but it is not necessary.
My point is:
1. Most 2.4 Ghz band users are in noisy environment
2. Packet loss slows down many applications (youtube is probably the
most common one) significantly
3. I have a solution that works for me. May be it will help others. May
be there is a better one
You still assume way too much about how similar your setup might be
compared to other people's setups.
You are right. I didn't do any market research on this:-) May be
creating several profiles for the most common cases e.g. ordinary home
users (like me), corporate users, etc. is a good idea.
