Yes, I know the firmware crash you reported and along with TKIP that's

other regressions (one in net80211 and one outside wireless) which needed

Okay cool :)
Fun observation: In a desperate attempt to get out of this trouble, I
changed the wifi config in BIOS (well, firmware, really) from 'Default'
to 'Fallback'. Something about signal strengths and regulartory regions
and such. Those are the only two choices - but it seems in 'Fallback'
mode, none of the HT/VHT stuff works at all and I never get network. In
'Default' mode at least it comes up, as described.
It does not seem to affect operation without superspeed-wifi enabled..
I'm now back on 11g/11a, and even here I'm limited to 1Mbps(!)
according to the ifconfig output. And this isn't a lie either; it is
absolutely
ifconfig will not tell the truth for what the firmware does. There's a
feedback loop missing in net80211 for that. Also RX vs. TX can be
different.
Yea I suspected as much.
horrendeously slow. Not 1mbit, but effectively maybe 7-8? Has this
changed with recent commits?
I thought you said you are back to 55Mbit/s. Since then nothing
relevant has changed.
Looks like it depends on the network and AP. I think my Ubiquiti/Amplifi
is messing with me again. Ignore this part of my report, sorry about the
noise.
