Adrian,
Finally, I managed to get again a 9.1-RELEASE running with a recompiled
kernel.
gomorrha% uname -v
FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE #0 r246834: Fri Feb 15 18:57:51 CET 2013
root@gomorrha.local:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/WIFIDEBUG
This is the result of athstats:
gomorrha% /usr/local/bin/athstats -i ath0
32484 data frames received
5130 data frames transmit
3273 mib overflow interrupts
1M current transmit rate
190 watchdog timeouts
2040 rx failed 'cuz of bad CRC
7 rx failed 'cuz of PHY err
7 CCK restart
-0/+0 TDMA slot adjust (usecs, smoothed)
86 avg recv rssi
-96 rx noise floor
5130 tx frames through raw api
1 first step level
1 OFDM weak signal detect
12 ANI increased spur immunity
10 ANI decrease spur immunity
990 ANI enabled OFDM weak signal detect
2061 ANI disabled OFDM weak signal detect
3041 ANI disabled CCK weak signal threshold
4 ANI increased first step level
2940667 cumulative OFDM phy error count
5258173 cumulative CCK phy error count
74 bad FCS
105 average rssi (beacons only)
84 average rssi (all rx'd frames)
Antenna profile:
[1] tx 0 rx 32484
Is it somewhat helpful?
regards,
Kamil
