the maximum tx / rx rate for 4x4 vht80 and 2x2 vht160 is
identical. so
vht160 would not increase performance in any way
Well, if it can also do 2x2 MU-MIMO at 160MHz then it can be a
perfectly fine STA to a 4x4 160MHz MU-MIMO chip that can actually
transmit 2x2 rates to different MU-MIMO peers.
That's the outstanding question I have - is it like, 2x2 MU only, or
is it say, 2 concurrently different spatial stream 2x2 MU? Ie, can you
have 2 peers, different VHT spatial groups (or 4 peers, 1 spatial
group each) all going at the same time?
I'm .. not even sure how you're supposed to cleanly negotiate that you
can do 4NSS in VHT80 but 2NSS in VHT160 to a peer... that only makes
sense if you're doing lots of 1NSS and 2NSS MU-MIMO peers..
I think using the max-rx-rate logic might could imply this, but I am
not sure
many drivers fill this out properly.
Looks like a mess waiting to happen to me.
Even if you can do 1x1 160Mhz MU-MIMO to two stations, and I am not
certain you
can since in 80Mhz you can only do a 1x1 and a 2x2 (not two 2x2).
So, from what I know currently, 80+80 is not that useful on the 9984
NIC...
never tried 80+80 since i need to enhance the channel logic alot in
my firmware code to handle it. would be great enough if vht160 would
work as expected and
i'm not sure right now if it really works, even if the interface
initialized correctly it assocs only with vht80
Looks like it is working with the hack I posted:

Thanks,

cool. let me check it on my devices
