Thanks Ben, indeed UDP traffic was uni-directional from client to 
server on the wireless AP, so the bidirectional flag did the trick!

Would appreciate some input on a few more questions below:

So, if I got it right, rate control and its statistics refer to 
traffic sent from the AP to stations, i.e. only outgoing/transmitted traffic ?

Also, does this mean that the uplink and downlink rates of a session
 between an AP and a Station are independent?

Finally, is there any way for the AP to control the uplink rate its
 stations use, or is it up to each station to use appropriate RC algorithms? 

Looking forward to your replies,

Thanks
