I submitted a set of patches to resolve some of the PS issues in ath9k. I would expect these to hit wireless-testing.git eventually, but if you are willing to test the changes before that, you can find the patches from http://w1.fi/p/ps/ One thing to note here is that there are still some issues with the timeout=0 case (use of PS-Poll to fetch buffered frames) which is enabled with "iwconfig wlan0 power on", so at this point, I would recommend running the test either with the default wireless-testing.git PS mode setting or by enabling power saving with "iwconfig wlan0 power timeout 500ms" which should result in the same configuration. I have not tested these on AR5418, but at least with AR9280, these patches do improve stability and general functionality of the default PS mode considerably. I have been able to run multi-hour tests without losing connection. - Jouni -- 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
