Subject: RTL8187 rate control problems
Date: Tue, 6 Nov 2007 13:23:16 -0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200711061323.16302.claudio@mandriva.com> (raw)
Hi,
I've been reported a problem with RTL8187 working only at very close ranges
(4-5m) in Linux while the same hardware works at much higher distances in
Windows. Investigating the problem, I found that it's caused by the mac80211
rate control incrementing the bit rate to 54M and never going down because
the fail counter stays at zero. What would be a good way to check
transmission retries or failures in the RTL8187 to prevent this problem? Is
it possible to have a retry count sent to the tx callback so
status->retry_count could be set accordingly?
