I just did some more tests. I see what you mean about the softirq value going up. The longer my test went, the higher it got. It might not be a fair comparison, but with DD-WRT, I'm getting 18 Mbit/s and OpenWRT (b43), I get 14Mbit/s. I'm using gkrellm and watching the network graph. Both AP's start off showing 2.1M, but the OpenWRT one drops off a bit, before back up again. I should probably do a 2.4 kernel OpenWRT test for it to be a fair comparison. Maybe I'll get time to do that soon. cheers, Andy _______________________________________________ openwrt-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openwrt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-users
