I think it's a bug in the driver BWN (4), I tried all known variants and the result is negative ... not connecting. Does anyone else have another solution? Thanks. George ___ freebsd-wireless@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman

.. please file a bug. :-) Now that I have VIMAGE mostly working with wifi, I'd like to take the opportunity to fix whatever 11n ibss bugs you see. There's no reason why aggregation and MCS rates shouldn't work with IBSS. The only questionable issue right now is encryption and that requires some st

Ok, Please reply to the PR with some debugging output. On both nodes, enable this: wlandebug -i wlanX +assoc +ht +rate Then do some pings on either side. Don't do iperf, it'll dump out way too much debugging (one line per frame.) Just pings and record both sides is enough. It'll tell me how th

Re: 11n channel width

2012-10-22 Thread Adrian Chadd
2GHz is a bit flakier here because there's generally a lot more interference floating around. You just choose a primary channel and then say ht:40 . You don't get to choose upper or lower here - the standard requires you don't have overlapping 40MHz channels. (eg ifconfig wlan0 channel 6:ht/40)

Guys, I think there's a bug in the bwn driver. But since there's no driver maintainer at the moment, I don't know how/if it's going to get fixed. The first thing that creeps to mind is "why are the RSSI values the way they are." Is it just cosmetic, or is the unit actually seeing really, really l

Lemme just be really clear - Bernhard and I would really, really love someone to step up and be the maintainers for the Marvell and Broadcom drivers. If you're sufficiently motivated and can start merging in fixes from netbsd/openbsd/linux, there's likely NDAs you can sign with Marvell/Broadcom to
