Hello All,

I'm trying to have a decent wifi connection between two Raspi-3, one is
an AP, the other a Client.

Reading lots of threads, it seems that the problem lies in WiFi Power
Management.

Both machines are:      
piCorePlayer v6.0.0-b5 | linux 4.19.75-pcpCore_v7 | piCore v10.2pCP |
Squeezelite v1.9.6-1198-pCP.

However, the Client accepts the command:

tc@spark:~$ iwconfig wlan0

wlan0     IEEE 802.11  ESSID:"LaScala"  
Mode:Managed  Frequency:2.442 GHz  Access Point:
B8:27:EB:B5:22:1F   
Bit Rate=72.2 Mb/s   Tx-Power=31 dBm   
Retry short limit:7   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
Power Management:on
Link Quality=64/70  Signal level=-46 dBm  
Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:65  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0

tc@spark:~$ sudo iwconfig wlan0 power off
tc@spark:~$ iwconfig wlan0

wlan0     IEEE 802.11  ESSID:"LaScala"  
Mode:Managed  Frequency:2.442 GHz  Access Point:
B8:27:EB:B5:22:1F   
Bit Rate=72.2 Mb/s   Tx-Power=31 dBm   
Retry short limit:7   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
Power Management:off
Link Quality=64/70  Signal level=-46 dBm  
Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:66  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0

while the AP returns "invalid argument":

tc@Fidelio:~$ iwconfig wlan0

wlan0     IEEE 802.11  Mode:Master  Tx-Power=31 dBm   
Retry short limit:7   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
Power Management:on

tc@Fidelio:~$ sudo iwconfig wlan0 power off
Error for wireless request "Set Power Management" (8B2C) :
SET failed on device wlan0 ; Invalid argument.

I am very confused..

Thanks for your help,

-Gian
