Hi Thomas Thank you for your reply. Could you please let me know how can I verify these queues on a mesh router? (I am using TPLink router with Ath9k chipset). Also, the TXQ parameters can only be set if device is in AP or P2P mode. Do you have any idea why this restriction is in place? https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/net/wireless/nl80211.c static int nl80211_set_wiphy(struct sk_buff *skb, struct genl_info *info) { if (info->attrs[NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_TXQ_PARAMS]) { .... if (netdev->ieee80211_ptr->iftype != NL80211_IFTYPE_AP && netdev->ieee80211_ptr->iftype != NL80211_IFTYPE_P2P_GO) return -EINVAL; ... } Best Regards Phani On Tue, Mar 6, 2018 at 11:59 PM, Thomas Pedersen <thomas@xxxxxxxx> wrote: > On Thu, Mar 1, 2018 at 7:27 AM, Phani Siriki <yvsg.phanis@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: >> Hi All >> >> I am trying to understand the queuing mechanism wireless mesh networks. >> >> As per AP mode is concerned, there are four queues (BK, BE, Vi, VO) >> and traffic is controlled based on CWmin, CWmax, AIFS and TxOP. >> >> Does, mesh mode also involve these queues?
