Capturing packets with bad FCS in monitor mode

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

 



Hello,

is it possible to receive packets with bad FCS in monitor mode (ath9k driver)?
There is a comment in ath9k/common.c which says that a bad checksum is
ignored in monitor mode, but I have so far never been able to receive a
packet with bad FCS (I do not know how to generate such packets,
so I might just be too lucky that all packets are received unimpaired).

Does ath9k hardware drop packets with bad FCS directly? If so, can
it be disabled?

Best regards.
