Hi, I just managed to get the libertas card to work. Unfortunately the data-rate is not too good (30 - 50K/s) To get it work I changed block sizes to be multiples of 4. Could somebody please point out a good place to increase buffer sizes to multiples of 4 without influencing the performance/error rate of the driver? Are there other possibilities to increase data-rate for my configuration? thank you!
