Please note that we have better estimates of > the frame failure trends (e.g., err_avg). What these magic values are? It's supposed to be an estimation of the probability of a frame transmission failure. The magic numbers just express the formula fail_avg = (8 * old_fail_avg + 1 * fail_avg) / 9 a simple smoothing, there is nothing special to the exact numbers. If you think err_avg is a good candidate (is it also 0-100?) I'd be happy to use that instead. -- Luis Carlos Cobo Rus GnuPG ID: 44019B60 cozybit Inc. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
