Yes. I just did, once again, to verify it. No change, unfortunately :(

It was the same. I was hoping a newer kernel might contain a fix of
some sort, that's why I updated it.

Here are the logs: http://diff.cc/tmp/kernel_iwlagn_3.log.bz2
They were made with "11n_disable=1" and without the patches posted by Wey-Yi.

For me knowing the driver design (a little ;-) it is not difficult to 
remember. Your feedback has valid arguments so I will reconsider. Franky 
is looking whether dropping it will affect the other patches submitted 
to Greg.

Hi Greg,

Please drop this one. The rest of this series should still be fine 
without this one. We found out this patch introduced a bug to fullmac. 
Will fix it and resend in the future.

Thanks,

Dropping this one will affect some following patches in the series. 
Since it's not a bug, shall we keep this one and change it as Johannes 
suggested in future commit?

One experiment if you can help us to test.

please reset the repository to

and give a try to see if you still seeing the issue.

That's correct. On Windows the problem does not occur with that
particular router. Also I don't think I have had comparable problems
with other routers, at least not in my home (not on Linux, either).
I'm using a different AP right now and it works just fine.

yes, we know this could be AP related, Larry also seeing some issues
against this AP, but I still like to understand and root cause the issue
and find a solution or W/A for it.

Henrik. what kind of traffic you are running? what I see from the log,
there are not many aggregated frames, (what I mean is I do not see a lot
of BA in the log) which is very different from what I am test here. also
I see the retry ratio is high in the aggregated frame compare to what I
have here.

Well, I can't really tell you which router models worked fine, because
I almost never had physical access to them (or bothered, for that
matter ;)). The Netgear WGR614v10, which I used to have at home,
worked without problems. Same with a few TP-Link routers. Turning my
HTC Desire HD (Android) handset to a WiFi hotspot worked fine, too. So
this one is pretty much the first one that I am encountering.
Unfortunately I don't have any other Fritz!Boxes by AVM at the moment.
The one I am connected to right now is a ZyXEL ISP rebrand. I don't
have physical access to it, so I can't really tell you what model it
is.

What kind of a sniffer log. You mean TCP packets?

It's nothing big really. The router is not yet connected to the
internet, so I am mainly just opening the webpanel of the router or
ping it.

how about just doing a flood ping to your AP
#sudo ping -f <AP's ip address>
