[Bug 192950] [iwn] Centrino Advanced-N 6205 slow on 11n, better on 11g
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=192950 --- Comment #23 from dieterich@gmail.com --- (In reply to Hiren Panchasara from comment #22) (In reply to dieterich.joh from comment #21) (In reply to Adrian Chadd from comment #17) Also, please test out with the latest -HEAD and see if it behaves better for you. Just installed r271215 and can confirm that the situation is much improved. Without setting -ht, I can get some 3.5 MB/s upload over scp to off-site. I can run more detailed tests if you wish, but I am more than happy with the status as is. Are you connecting at 11g? Can you paste ifconfig o/p? It'd be nice to see what rate does it go up to? (with wlandebug +rate) No, this should be 11n (on the 2.4 GHz band and w/ only 20 MHz channel width, though) as I explicitly configured the access point to not support anything but 11n. ifconfig: wlan0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST metric 0 mtu 1500 ether XX inet 192.168.1.3 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 nd6 options=29PERFORMNUD,IFDISABLED,AUTO_LINKLOCAL media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet MCS mode 11ng status: associated ssid XX channel 10 (2457 MHz 11g ht/20) bssid XXX country US authmode WPA2/802.11i privacy ON deftxkey UNDEF TKIP 2:128-bit TKIP 3:128-bit txpower 15 bmiss 10 scanvalid 60 bgscan bgscanintvl 300 bgscanidle 250 roam:rssi 7 roam:rate 64 protmode CTS ampdulimit 64k ampdudensity 8 -amsdutx amsdurx shortgi wme roaming MANUAL wlandebug + rate: Sep 7 13:51:54 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 15, txcnt=36, retrycnt=11 Sep 7 13:51:54 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 15, txcnt=37, retrycnt=2 Sep 7 13:51:55 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 15, txcnt=37, retrycnt=6 Sep 7 13:51:55 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 15, txcnt=34, retrycnt=1 Sep 7 13:51:56 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 15, txcnt=38, retrycnt=8 Sep 7 13:51:56 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 15, txcnt=33, retrycnt=2 Sep 7 13:51:57 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 15, txcnt=39, retrycnt=5 Sep 7 13:51:57 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 15, txcnt=33, retrycnt=10 Sep 7 13:51:58 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 15, txcnt=38, retrycnt=20 Sep 7 13:51:58 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR decreasing rate 14 (txcnt=38 retrycnt=20) Sep 7 13:51:58 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 14, txcnt=38, retrycnt=5 Sep 7 13:51:59 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 14, txcnt=35, retrycnt=4 Sep 7 13:51:59 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 14, txcnt=34, retrycnt=6 Sep 7 13:52:00 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 14, txcnt=32, retrycnt=1 Sep 7 13:52:00 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR increasing rate 15 (txcnt=32 retrycnt=1) Sep 7 13:52:00 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 15, txcnt=31, retrycnt=12 Sep 7 13:52:00 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR decreasing rate 14 (txcnt=31 retrycnt=12) Sep 7 13:52:01 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 14, txcnt=36, retrycnt=3 Sep 7 13:52:01 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 14, txcnt=34, retrycnt=6 Sep 7 13:52:02 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 14, txcnt=34, retrycnt=5 Sep 7 13:52:02 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 14, txcnt=34, retrycnt=6 Sep 7 13:52:03 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 14, txcnt=34, retrycnt=5 Sep 7 13:52:03 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 14, txcnt=35, retrycnt=8 Sep 7 13:52:04 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 14, txcnt=30, retrycnt=6 Sep 7 13:52:04 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 14, txcnt=33, retrycnt=0 Sep 7 13:52:04 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR increasing rate 15 (txcnt=33 retrycnt=0) Sep 7 13:52:05 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 15, txcnt=26, retrycnt=5 Sep 7 13:52:05 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 15, txcnt=33, retrycnt=12 Sep 7 13:52:05 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR decreasing rate 14 (txcnt=33 retrycnt=12) Sep 7 13:52:06 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 14, txcnt=30, retrycnt=8 Sep 7 13:52:06 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 14, txcnt=33, retrycnt=5 Sep 7 13:52:07 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 14, txcnt=27, retrycnt=2 Sep 7 13:52:07 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 14, txcnt=32, retrycnt=9 Sep 7 13:52:08 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 14, txcnt=32, retrycnt=3 Sep 7 13:52:09 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 14, txcnt=27, retrycnt=1 Sep 7 13:52:09 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR increasing rate 15 (txcnt=27 retrycnt=1) Sep 7 13:52:09 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 15, txcnt=33, retrycnt=9 Sep 7 13:52:10 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 15, txcnt=32, retrycnt=8 Sep 7 13:52:10 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 15, txcnt=32, retrycnt=7 Sep 7 13:52:11 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 15, txcnt=32, retrycnt=8 Sep 7 13:52:11 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 15, txcnt=33, retrycnt=11 Sep 7 13:52:12 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR: current rate 15, txcnt=31, retrycnt=11 Sep 7 13:52:12 kernel: wlan0: [] AMRR decreasing rate 14 (txcnt=31 retrycnt=11) Sep 7 13:52:12

Issues with urtwn
I've been having some issues with connection stability in urtwn for several months. The usual symptom is that after some period of time the connection will apparently stall. If I'm running ping continuously, for instance, it will at some point stop receiving replies. Then, sometime later, immediately if I use the reassociate command in wpa_cli, the connection will fix itself and all the packets I didn't get earlier get delivered at once: hundreds of ping replies, for instance, some with time stamps minutes in the past. No data is actually lost, though. I think the issue is that the driver does not actually support powersave mode (maybe it should?) but reports to the AP that it does: ifconfig wlan0 list sta (this is on the AP) ADDR AID CHAN RATE RSSI IDLE TXSEQ RXSEQ CAPS FLAG 80:1f:02:cc:47:a91 11 11M 8.50 5526 55712 EPS AE RSN I don't know enough about wireless to fix this, but the AP waiting for a powersave poll and never getting one seems consistent with the problem. Is there a simple way just to disable advertising this? -Nathan ___ freebsd-wireless@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-wireless To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-wireless-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

I think what you are relating here is what I observed recently too. Sorry, I'm new to FreeBSD. Just installed it recently, and I noticed that after I left it idle (I went to do something for some hours) for some time it lost the connection. Only rebooting makes it connect again to my network.
