Hello,

I have a certain update regarding my issues and I'm hoping get some new
perspective.

I repeated my experiments randomizing the mac addresses and payload. You
were quite right that the issue might be related to suboptimal waveform.
Because sequence numbers which were always erroneous seemed to change.
However, there were still certain numbers which were constantly wrong
through the randomized frames.

Then I found a Usrp 2922 which I believe is n210. Surprisingly, when used
as a tx, 2922 doesn't give those deterministic errors and the total frame
error rate too decreased drastically to around 1-1.5% from 4-5%. Also the
constellation is visibly better.

Is the value of fer acceptable at 1-1.5% or should there be absolutely 0
errors. Also could there be something wrong with my Rios?

Bests,
Nikita
