Won't reverting it reintroduce the earlier situation ? If ANI issues/regressions for pre-AR9003 chips are still arising, I wonder what we have gained by the switch and if the new algorithm is a good fit for the older chips. At least for SoC chips, people will report it to OpenWrt. For PC-OEM cards, users will just say that the card sucks and move on... Sujith
