[PATCH 20/20] wifi: rtw88: Enable the new RTL8821AU/RTL8812AU drivers

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

 



These are older Wifi 5 chips. RTL8821AU is 1x1, with or without
Bluetooth. RTL8812AU is 2x2, without Bluetooth.

Beamforming is not implemented. It looks like these chips need a
different implementation than what is in bf.c.

Speed tests with RTL8821AU: 137 Mbps download, 144 Mbps upload.
Speed tests with RTL8812AU: 344 Mbps download, 387 Mbps upload.

RTL8812AU should be faster, but my router is currently limited to
transmitting only one spatial stream due to a kernel bug.
