So this is a measured step towards consistency with the vendor driver. Maybe you can mention these details in the commit message. > Yes, it ends up with 0x0c not matter what antenna position type is.

Also worth mentioning in the commit message then, that the 0xc ACT_CONTROL value is effectively what the working vendor driver uses. > > > - * 0x280, 0x00, 0x200, 0x80 - not clear > > > + * Different settings per different antenna position. > > > + * Antenna switch to BT: 0x280, 0x00 (inverse) > > > + * Antenna switch to WiFi: 0x0, 0x280 (inverse) > > > + * Antenna controlled by PTA: 0x200, 0x80 (inverse) > > > */ > > > - rtl8xxxu_write32(priv, REG_S0S1_PATH_SWITCH, 0x00); > > > + rtl8xxxu_write32(priv, REG_S0S1_PATH_SWITCH, 0x80); > > > > I don't quite follow the comment here.

Is it that an antenna connector has two pins and this one swaps the meaning of each pin? Does the new value of 0x80 reflect what the vendor driver does in practice? Thanks Daniel
