carl9170 problem

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

 



Hello everyone.

Thanks for releasing the carl9170 driver in the 
compat-wireless package. I have been able to compile the driver, so that
 is great. The connection seems to be a bit inconsistent. I get the 
following quite often in /var/log/messages :

kernel: ieee80211 phy9: channel change: 2472 -> 2462 failed (2)

and/or

kernel: ieee80211 phy9: invalid plcp cck rate (0)

and/or

kernel: ieee80211 phy9: FW: MAC RESET

When
 that happens (which can be as often as every few minutes) my reported 
connection speed in network manager drops to 6 or 1 Mb/s. The network 
speed is noticeably reduced (for instance download speeds drastically 
reduce, online videos stutter, or music streaming from a different 
computer pauses, etc).

My previous adapter TP-Link TL-WN721N (ath9k_htc driver) did not behave like this.

Any thoughts/solutions ??

Again, many thanks for providing the driver. I cannot program (I wish I could to help) but I can report my experience.

Dale
