Hi misc@,
I have an Alix 2d3 board with a RouterBoard R52Hn miniPCI wireless card,
featuring an AR9220 chip (full dmesg and debug messages are included in my mail
later), and I'm running it in hostap mode.
# dmesg | grep athn
athn0 at
pci0 dev 12 function 0 "Atheros AR9280" rev 0x01: irq 9
athn0: AR9280 rev 2 (2T2R), ROM rev 22, address xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
# uname -a
OpenBSD host.domain 5.4 GENERIC#37 i386
This is a high power card, with 25dBm output power @802.11g 6Mbit and 22dBm
@802.11g 54Mbit, and is connected to a pair of 8dBi omnidirectional antennae.
However, both its range and its signal level at the same distance is similar to
those of my generic wireless router provided by my ISP. An other interesting
aspect is that when I connect to it either with an Android phone or with a
laptop (Kubuntu or Linux Mint), they correctly connect with 802.11g 54Mbit, but
tend to randomly downgrade the connection to as low as 802.11g 1Mbit, despite
the fact that they are in less than 2m distance with direct visibility to the
antennae. Using wget on the laptop, I couldn't get transfer speeds above
~1.5MBps (~12Mbit).
Similarly, when I use my card to scan the neighboring networks, I get similar
readings as with my laptop, however I suspect that this hardware should be
capable of more.
At first, I tried to force the media setting in hostname.athn0 to 802.11g
54Mbit, however it seems that the media is in fact in autoselect mode:
# cat /etc/hostname.athn0
inet x.x.x.x y.y.y.y
media OFDM54 mode 11g mediaopt hostap
nwid xxx
wpakey xxx
chan 3
wpaciphers ccmp
wpaprotos wpa2
# ifconfig athn0
athn0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
lladdr xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
priority: 4
groups: wlan
media: IEEE802.11 OFDM54 mode 11g hostap (autoselect mode 11g hostap)
status: active
ieee80211: nwid xxx chan 3 bssid xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx wpakey xxx

inet x.x.x.x netmask xxx broadcast x.x.x.x
inet6 xxx%athn0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x4
Is this the correct behaviour?
As the next step, I looked for a way to set the txpower setting manually.
Unfortunately, athn(4) doesn't support this feature, so I can't perform this
test.
Sidenote: the manual of ifconfig(8) doesn't state that not all drivers support
the txpower option, and, by looking at the source code ieee80211_ioctl.c it
turns out that the same error message is given in this case and in case of an
out of bound value:
if ((ic->ic_caps & IEEE80211_C_TXPMGT) == 0) {
error = EINVAL;
break;
}
if (!(IEEE80211_TXPOWER_MIN <= txpower->i_val &&
txpower->i_val <= IEEE80211_TXPOWER_MAX)) {
error = EINVAL;
break;
}
While this is logically correct, I think it would be more informative to provide
a different error, or to note this behaviour in the man page.
For the next step, I started looking around at the source code of the athn
driver, but I'm not familiar nor with driver programming nor with wireless
cards, although I realized that the debug messages may be informative. So I have
compiled a new kernel, which differs from 5.4 GENERIC only that it is compiled
with the ATHN_DEBUG option, and athn_debug is set to a high value in athn.c.
Before the debug findings, some netstat:
# netstat -I athn0
Name Mtu Network Address Ipkts Ierrs Opkts Oerrs Colls
athn0 1500 <Link> xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx 78063 238708 119145 6479 0
athn0 1500 x.x.x.x/x x.x.x.x 78063 238708 119145 6479 0
athn0 1500 xxx%athn xxx 78063 238708 119145 6479 0
Is it normal to have this amount of errors?

Is there any oddity here?
Finally, the things that seems odd to me in the debug messages:
Tx gain type=0x0
This means that the eeprom doesn't identify this card as high power, so the
table ar9280_2_0_tx_gain is used instead of ar9280_2_0_tx_gain_high_power. Can
this be correct?
During initialization, the card is reset multiple times ("needs a full reset"),
is this normal?
I don't see any reference of the Tx power/gain or Rx gain settings in the logs.
How could I check if the card is performing as intended?
Furthermore, there seems to be a lot of CRC errors in the log, and "beacon
stuck" messages. Is this normal?

To sum up, I would like to know if there are any problems evident from my logs,
and if my hardware is working at its intended performance. If not, I'd like to
ask what should be done to fix the errors.
Thank you in advance,
Marton
