Yeah - something like that. But again, I don't really think that these numbers are really trustworthy. Might be worth checking. > > How should I disable AMPDU? Module parameter: 11n_disable=1 Or take 3.14-rc8 / 3.13.7 - it is disabled by default in these kernels. > > Daniel ��.n��������+%������w��{.n�����{���zW����ܨ}���Ơz�j:+v�����w����ޙ��&�)ߡ�a����z�ޗ���ݢj��w�f
