SSH is unusable. The link is fine when it works but sometimes it stalls for a few seconds, which kills tcp performances: iperf -sui1 ------------------------------------------------------------ Server listening on UDP port 5001 Receiving 1470 byte datagrams UDP buffer size: 106 KByte (default) ------------------------------------------------------------ [ 3] local 192.168.0.1 port 5001 connected with 192.168.0.79 port 33066 [ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth Jitter Lost/Total Datagrams [ 3] 0.0- 1.0 sec 7.98 MBytes 66.9 Mbits/sec 0.117 ms 1423/ 7115 (20%) [ 3] 1.0- 2.0 sec 11.3 MBytes 94.5 Mbits/sec 0.085 ms 2811/10849 (26%) [ 3] 2.0- 3.0 sec 11.1 MBytes 92.9 Mbits/sec 0.119 ms 2734/10632 (26%) [ 3] 3.0- 4.0 sec 6.63 MBytes 55.6 Mbits/sec 0.135 ms 1257/ 5986 (21%) [ 3] 4.0- 5.0 sec 1.95 MBytes 16.3 Mbits/sec 0.113 ms 186/ 1575 (12%) [ 3] 5.0- 6.0 sec 1.17 MBytes 9.81 Mbits/sec 0.083 ms 254/ 1088 (23%) [ 3] 6.0- 7.0 sec 0.00 Bytes 0.00 bits/sec 0.083 ms 0/ 0 (nan%) [ 3] 7.0- 8.0 sec 0.00 Bytes 0.00 bits/sec 0.083 ms 0/ 0 (nan%) [ 3] 8.0- 9.0 sec 0.00 Bytes 0.00 bits/sec 0.083 ms 0/ 0 (nan%) [ 3] 9.0-10.0 sec 1.86 MBytes 15.6 Mbits/sec 0.144 ms 649/ 1973 (33%) [ 3] 10.0-11.0 sec 2.38 MBytes 19.9 Mbits/sec 0.097 ms 609/ 2304 (26%) [ 3] 11.0-12.0 sec 652 KBytes 5.34 Mbits/sec 0.068 ms 198/ 652 (30%) [ 3] 12.0-13.0 sec 9.69 MBytes 81.3 Mbits/sec 0.085 ms 2563/ 9476 (27%) [ 3] 13.0-14.0 sec 6.38 MBytes 53.5 Mbits/sec 0.249 ms 1426/ 5977 (24%) [ 3] 14.0-15.0 sec 8.45 MBytes 70.9 Mbits/sec 1.677 ms 1940/ 7971 (24%) [ 3] 15.0-16.0 sec 8.03 MBytes 67.4 Mbits/sec 2.580 ms 1899/ 7628 (25%) [ 3] 16.0-17.0 sec 6.91 MBytes 57.9 Mbits/sec 0.157 ms 905/ 5832 (16%) [ 3] 17.0-18.0 sec 233 KBytes 1.91 Mbits/sec 0.788 ms 32/ 194 (16%) [ 3] 18.0-19.0 sec 1.12 MBytes 9.38 Mbits/sec 0.620 ms 210/ 1008 (21%) [ 3] 19.0-20.0 sec 7.06 MBytes 59.3 Mbits/sec 0.159 ms 1027/ 6066 (17%) [ 3] 20.0-21.0 sec 6.07 MBytes 50.9 Mbits/sec 0.322 ms 720/ 5047 (14%) [ 3] 21.0-22.0 sec 6.13 MBytes 51.4 Mbits/sec 0.109 ms 619/ 4989 (12%) [ 3] 22.0-23.0 sec 4.84 MBytes 40.6 Mbits/sec 0.154 ms 365/ 3814 (9.6%) [ 3] 23.0-24.0 sec 5.26 MBytes 44.1 Mbits/sec 0.308 ms 224/ 3978 (5.6%) [ 3] 24.0-25.0 sec 6.06 MBytes 50.9 Mbits/sec 0.167 ms 757/ 5083 (15%) [ 3] 25.0-26.0 sec 6.84 MBytes 57.4 Mbits/sec 0.148 ms 902/ 5779 (16%) [ 3] 26.0-27.0 sec 7.66 MBytes 64.3 Mbits/sec 0.152 ms 1288/ 6755 (19%) [ 3] 27.0-28.0 sec 0.00 Bytes 0.00 bits/sec 0.152 ms 0/ 0 (nan%) [ 3] 28.0-29.0 sec 84.7 KBytes 694 Kbits/sec 14.385 ms 141/ 200 (70%) [ 3] 0.0-30.0 sec 145 MBytes 40.7 Mbits/sec 0.290 ms 27599/131272 (21%) [ 3] 0.0-30.0 sec 1 datagrams received out-of-order $ ping 192.168.0.1 PING 192.168.0.1 (192.168.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 192.168.0.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=280 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.1: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=1.95 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.1: icmp_seq=4 ttl=64 time=1002 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.1: icmp_seq=5 ttl=64 time=50.3 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.1: icmp_seq=6 ttl=64 time=264 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.1: icmp_seq=7 ttl=64 time=322 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.1: icmp_seq=8 ttl=64 time=1232 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.1: icmp_seq=10 ttl=64 time=5.11 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.1: icmp_seq=11 ttl=64 time=1.96 ms ^C --- 192.168.0.1 ping statistics --- 11 packets transmitted, 9 received, 18% packet loss, time 10021ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 1.957/351.321/1232.350/430.558 ms, pipe 2 there are no errors in the master and client syslog, all the clients are using the same ath9k with an AR5416 card. signal level is around -61 dBm at 3 meters, without walls. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 11+ messages in thread

I think I've patched the driver in 50 places and it still goes up and down up and down in perfect cycles. Who needs an atomic clock when you can just count the throughput cycles and know exactly what time it is? :) My current theory is that it's some sort of tx beamforming algo that screws up once signal gets below -78 dBm or so. But you see the stalls even with perfect signal, right? That never happens to me (which is fortunate as I would be in an asylum by now if it did). Does anybody know which register to fiddle with to turn off all adaptive tx stuff (to debug)? It's an AR5416 MAC/BB with AR2133 radio. Is it possible to get some hw documentation somewhere? BTW, my setup is an unencrypted HT20 access point. /Bj?rn 2009/12/26 <rootkit85@yahoo.it>: > 2009/12/24 Bj?rn Smedman <bjorn.smedman@venatech.se>: >> Do the stalls occur at regular intervals?
