Subject: [PATCH] ath11k: Disable SU support in meshpoint mode
Date: Wed, 4 Sep 2019 11:15:27 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190904091527.27260-1-john@phrozen.org> (raw)
From: Sven Eckelmann <seckelmann@datto.com>
The firmware WLAN.HK.2.1.0.1-00629-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1 often stops sending
data on 5GHz when SU support is advertised. A simple throughput benchmark
will end up at only a couple hundred kilobytes per second (when finishing
at all).
Disabling SU related flags works around this problem and allowed a maximum
throughput of ~450 MBit/s in a simple test setup with an HK01 over air.
