Just for my understanding: did you test iperf payload in both directions
parallel or serial?

What about the hardware of the STA?

I set the 80211.n options like this in hostapd.conf:

ieee80211n=1
ht_capab=[HT40+][SHORT-GI-40][SHORT-GI-20][TX-STBC1][MAX-AMSDU-3839][RX-STBC12][SMPS-STATIC][GF]

It's vitally to enable 40MHz channels, above [HT40+].

But you should put your own values into the config. You get them from iw
list of the AP interface.

Yes, the issues I saw came up with nl80211 based STA interface running
parallel to a ralink legacy driver based interface (the payload from
ath9k interface was practically knocked out (DOS-attack :-)) - the
ralink legacy driver based STA sent on briskly).


Kind regards,
