Re: [RFC] wifi: intel: incorrect RSSI values on beacons from APs using legacy rates

Hello,

Thank you Ben.

We tried the patch in [1] and it works for us, now we are getting the correct values of RSSI from the APs with the legacy rates.

Regards,

Issam

Hello,

I have opened a ticket (https://community.intel.com/t5/Wireless/wifi-intel-incorrect-RSSI-values-on-beacons-from-APs-using/m-p/1647584#M57080) on the intel support community about this issue, but the Linux OS is unsupported by them.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to further debug this issue or what might be causing it?

I'm not sure about this specific issue, but if you feel like using out-of-tree patches that are never likely to make it upstream, you can find patches in our tree that disables
the Intel firmware's beacon filtering (and beacon RSSI reporting)
and then does the RSSI calculation in the driver.  It is not a small change and might
have some weird dependencies on other stuff in our tree.

That fixed some inaccuracies that we found, but it may have draw-backs that I'm
not aware of.
