Hi all,
So talking to some colleagues at work, I managed to find someone else
who uses the EdiMax USB dongle and persuaded them to lend it to me for
the weekend in order to see whether it could be related to a hardware
difference with my OEM dongle.
I've just tested with the EdiMax USB dongle which reports as "Bus 004
Device 004: ID 7392:7811 Edimax Technology Co., Ltd EW-7811Un 802.11n
Wireless Adapter [Realtek RTL8188CUS]" in lsusb, which I believe is
exactly the same hardware that Larry is using. And again I still see the
problem with disassociation.
I spent a bit more time tinkering further with debug=0x5, forgetting
that I had left your last diagnostic patch applied. Based upon when the
beacon output disappears in the logs (after updating the power
registers), it does seem likely that is a power-related problem.
The two power-related messages that stand out to me are:
1) Repeated output of "pHalData->bHwRadioOff and eRfPowerStateToSet do
not match: pHalData->bHwRadioOff 0, eRfPowerStateToSet 0" messages
2) rtl92c_dm_txpower_tracking_callback_thermalmeter() seems to be called
X seconds before the "AP off for X seconds" messages
Larry - I've sent you the complete debug off-list from the EdiMax, so it
should be a like-for-like comparison with your setup. Hopefully
comparing with your output will help you work out exactly what the
problem is.
ATB,
Mark.
