Hi everyone,

I'm trying to increase the size of the payload of 802.11 packets. I have 
changed the IEEE80211_MAX_MPDU_LEN in ath9k.h to

#define IEEE80211_MAX_MPDU_LEN     (6000 + FCS_LEN +            \
                                     (IEEE80211_WEP_IVLEN +      \
                                      IEEE80211_WEP_KIDLEN +     \
                                      IEEE80211_WEP_CRCLEN))

and IEEE80211_SEQ_MAX to

#define IEEE80211_SEQ_MAX          8192

I recompiled the ath9k module and installed it (using insmod). However, 
I cannot send payloads larger than 4020 bytes? Any suggestion? I would 
appreciate any help since I am quite new to these kernel and drivers things.

Best regards,
Eduardo
