.. oh and I should add: * Review all the MORE bit uses with traffic in the PSQ and the software queue when leaking frames out via PS-POLL. That's complicated as it has to check all TIDs for the existance of frames to TX, rather than a specific TID/AC. Adrian On 30 September 2012 22:39, Adria

[RFC] Methodize the net8021 power save hooks

2012-09-30 Thread Adrian Chadd
Hi, I'm about to start tinkering with ath(4) power save support and I'd like to introduce some net80211 changes to support this. * Methodize the STA and node power save functions, so the driver can stop/start the software queues as needed; * Push PS-POLL frame leaking into a method, so the driver

Hi, Your best bet is to buy one of the supported Atheros 802.11n NICs - AR5416, AR9160, AR9220. AR9285 didn't come in a PCI flavour. The AR9227 is a PCI version of the AR9287, but it's 2GHz only. You can find PCI D-Link adaptors that have either AR9220 or AR5416 NICs in them. Be sure it's "dual

Dual-band 802.11n support, in AP mode?

2012-09-30 Thread Chuck Burns
Subject pretty much says it all. I am in the market for a supported dual-band 802.11n wifi adapter, that can be used with FreeBSD to run as an access point. I have an old athlonxp 2000 that I intend to make into a custom router, but need to find a PCI (not PCI-e) or USB2.x adapter that I can
