Re: [Ninux-Wireless] Fwd: [Olsr-users] Anyone with verified 802.11n HT speeds on Ubiquiti M devices in adhoc/mesh mode?
funziona su M5... quello che manca e' la possibilita' di avere un simultaneo VAP in managed :( 2011/3/23 Gioacchino Mazzurco gmazzurc...@gmail.com -- Forwarded message -- From: Ben West westbyw...@gmail.com Date: 2011/3/22 Subject: Re: [Olsr-users] Anyone with verified 802.11n HT speeds on Ubiquiti M devices in adhoc/mesh mode? To: Daniel A. Nagy nagyd...@epointsystem.org Cc: olsr-us...@lists.olsr.org For an update, I believe I was able to get HT modes working in IBSS (aka adhoc) on two Nanostation M5s. The Links reported 150Mbit/s connection on both ends after settling, and throughput measured at 45Mbit/s. This required patches to iw and compat-wireless on OpenWRT r25206. More info here: https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?pid=131299#p131299 I would be interested to hear if anyone has been able to specify HT modes in /etc/config/wireless on OpenWRT, since I was unable. Note that the link speeds did suggest I was getting multiple chains (i.e. MIMO) very briefly. My test environment (indoor room, 20feet separation) could have been non-ideal.

piu' che ath9k sembra un problema ath9k + hostap stiamo a vedere come evolvono le cose. 2011/3/23 Gioacchino Mazzurco gmazzurc...@gmail.com si ho gia' aperto un bug da tempo per il VAP ma sembra che al momento e' proprio al modalita' AP che ha bisogno di essere stabilizzata su ath9k dopo di che probabilmente aggiusteranno anche i VAP 2011/3/23 Antonio Anselmi tony.anse...@gmail.com: funziona su M5... quello che manca e' la possibilita' di avere un simultaneo VAP in managed :( 2011/3/23 Gioacchino Mazzurco gmazzurc...@gmail.com -- Forwarded message -- From: Ben West westbyw...@gmail.com Date: 2011/3/22 Subject: Re: [Olsr-users] Anyone with verified 802.11n HT speeds on Ubiquiti M devices in adhoc/mesh mode?
