One PC connected to an equipment. This equipment is set in AP mode. Another PC connected to another equipment. This equipment is set in STA + WDS mode. Both equipment use the same openwrt Firmware (compat 2015-07-21), I only changed the ath10k firmware (in /lib/firmware/ath10k/...). Both equipment has the same hardware. I used a clear channel, and VHT80. The radio was connected with a coaxial cable and I placed 40 dBm attenuation per Rf chain. I used the WLN350NX radio card from compex. First test : ATH10K firmware 10.2.4.70-2 on both equipment An iperf from PC connected to the AP to the PC connected to the STA give 919 Mbps. An iperf from PC connected to the STA to the PC connected to the AP give 500 Mbps. Second test : ATHK firmware 10.2.4.70.10-2 on both equipment An iperf from PC connected to the AP to the PC connected to the STA give 921 Mbps. An iperf from PC connected to the STA to the PC connected to the AP give 441 Mbps. If I cross the computer I have the same result. I did several time these test and I always have the same result. Is it the expected result? What is the recommanded firmware version for each mode? Thanks for your help. Cedric Voncken.
