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 Antonis
