Re: Performance regression between Madwifi/net80211 and ath5k/mac80211

Adrian,
thanks for taking an interest. Today I built the current Madwifi driver for
Fedora Kernel 2.6.38.8-32.fc15.i686. The ath5k problem seems to be at the
tx side. If I run the iperf server on the ath5k node and the iperf client
at the madwifi node (identical hardware config), I consistently get a 
significant
speedup compared to ath5k-ath5k. The only difference is, which module is
blacklisted.

I have experimented with the RTS and fragmentation threshold setting without
success. 

Now I'm somewhat lost. The problem is either ath5k or mac80211.
