Instead of cat, I used single-second sleeps as can be seen in the attached
script. Our logs are roughly the same (I have replaced the last three bytes of
the MAC address by XX for privacy). The rtlwifi module is patched[1], hence
the out-of-tree marking.
What is the problem that you are experiencing? I am able to connect although
it took half a minute for the first ICMP ping packets to pass (and then there
is still a lot of packet loss). This pattern is observable on the past 2.5
weeks that I have been running ping tests (ping every second to the gateway).

I didn't understand the first part, are you referring to a possible mistake in
attaching the antennas? When I opened up the case, I saw two antennas that
were properly secured to the card.

Peter
