[ath9k-devel] Atheros Throughput with Aggregation & Encryption

[Mahesh Kumar <mkumar@solectek.com>]

Just an update,

I am using the latest Fusion Driver from Atheros. I compared the code 
with ath9k, and it's pretty much the same, than using different naming 
convention. So I assume the problem should be there with latest ath9k 
also, when we enable the Aggregation (AMPDU) and Encryption together. It 
would be great if somebody already did the same/similar test with ath9k, 
share the result.

Regarding the fusion driver,

It's not yet integrated to the kernel 2.6.13. It's built as modules.

Regards,
Mahesh.
