Hi,
to verify that it is a rate control issue, there is one very simple and
very practical test.
Take both ends of your link, and set them to fixed rate, and at the rate
you think it should be achieving.
If you can achieve significantly higher throughputs with fixed rate, you
know that the rate control algorithm (or interface with rate algorithm)
has failed.

Quite possible, but both use mac80211 for rate control. Which rate
control algorithm are you using?
