I built a 2.6.28.1-9 kernel to get the minstrel code for ath5k. The kernel for Suse 11.1 is 2.6.27.7-9. But that means that more could have changed besides the rate control code. It looks like minstrel and pid give about the same result, a bit worse that the ath_pci driver right now. Performance seems to vary from day to day. I'll experiment some more, and switch transmission channels. I'm not getting the really poor performance with ath5k right now. I haven't looked yet - is there a way to switch to 'pid' rate control without rebuilding the kernel? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
