This is 6.5-current on an old ALIX 2D3 (full dmesg below) using
athn0 at pci0 dev 12 function 0 "Atheros AR9280" rev 0x01: irq 9
athn0: AR9280 rev 2 (2T2R), ROM rev 22, address 04:f0:21:01:d6:86
It is my home router. I am seeing a lot of Ifails on the athn0.
For example, this is after scp'ing a big file from a macbook
(connected to the gw through the athn wifi) to another box
(connected to the gw by ethernet):
$ netstat -I athn0 -finet
NameMtu Network Address Ipkts IfailOpkts Ofail Colls
athn0 150004:f0:21:01:d6:86 2095294 84058 1912273 1519 0
athn0 1500 192.168.33/ gw.stare.cz2095294 84058 1912273 1519 0
The interface is configured as follows:
$ cat /etc/hostname.athn0
inet 192.168.33.1 255.255.255.0 NONE
media autoselect mediaopt hostap mode 11g chan 11
nwid stare.cz wpakey SECRET
Is 84058 / 2095294 =~ 4% Ifail to be expected?
How can I debug this?
More generally, what is the "best" supported wifi hw/driver nowadays?
(Used to be athn when I assembled this machine years ago).
