While using the latest b43legacy driver, I have severe packet loss
originating from the machine using the b43legacy driver. However, when
packets are routed through the machine using NAT, no packet loss
occurs. Ping results are as follows:
using 'ping -c 100 192.168.1.1'
From local machine (192.168.1.100) to wireless router (192.168.1.1)
43% packet loss, average rtt 13.987ms
From nat machine(192.168.2.100) to wireless router (192.168.1.1) via
b43legacy router(eth0:192.168.2.1, wlan0:192.168.1.100)
0% packet loss, average rtt 3.621ms
The only logical conclusion I can draw from the above information is
that there is something wrong with how packets are created locally and
delivered to the device. I'm willing to provide any help necessary
needed to correct the issue.
More information please.
1. Is your "latest b43legacy" from wireless-testing, 2.6.26-rc9, or what?
2. What BCM43xx card are you using?
3. What wireless router are you using?
Using the wireless-testing git tree with a BCM4306/2 and working with a Linksys
WRT54GL router with standard firmware, my statistics for the ping -c 100
192.168.1.1 command are 0% packet loss with average rtt of 2.919 ms.
