RE: [PATCH] ath10k: handling qos at STA side based on AP WMM enable/disable

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Sebastian,

If I am not wrong you are seeing the issue with WRT3200ACM (Marvell 88W8964) as client + QCA9984 (FW : 10.4-3.5.3-00038) as AP with below change you are seeing the crash while running traffic between the WRT3200ACM + QCA9984 ?
Do you used  any other client in place of WRT3200ACM ?
Can you share the more details on firmware crash ?

Regards,
Balaji.

did you notice  that Marvell 88W8964 based clients will crash 10.4-3.5.3 firmwares?  (tested with 9984 and 10.4-3.5.3-00038) client device was a linksys wrt3200acm running dd-wrt for testing
