ath5k AP issues

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

 



Attached is a wireshark log. Let me explain what you see in there:

I have an ath5k AP and the powersaving n810 device as STA.
What I try to do is ping the n810. You can see that at the start of the log.

Packet #31 is a ping to the n810. #42, too. and so on...
You see that the n810 does not reply. (not even with an 802.11 ack)
I guess the n810 is in PS at that time.
Also note that the TIM sent by the AP is empty.

What I did at #135 is _simultaneously_ ping from the n810 to the ath5k.
At that point suddenly both pings running on both ends start to succeed.

This is with a vanilla 2.6.31.5 kernel, but I can also reproduce this with
compat-wireless and compat-wireless-stable.
