But I think you should care about the error level, because high error rates decreases Aggregate frame length consequently shows very little throughput that may be not tolerable for your application.

For some applications, I like to be able to set a specific bit rate, and have that bit rate used no matter the resulting errors. I have looked a the code briefly, and it seems that there is the possibility for setting up several retries, with changes in bit rate. So, the questions are: 1) how to 'fix' a rate, disable adjustments on retries, etc? 2) What is the relationship between the bit rate selected at this OS level, and the subcarrier modulation of the RF signal? Thanks, John Clark. _______________________________________________ ath9k-devel mailing list ath9k-devel at lists.ath9k.org https://lists.ath9k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath9k-devel
