ath9k: fix max noise floor threshold 2012-04-22T23:21:41+00:00 Rajkumar Manoharan rmanohar@qca.qualcomm.com 2012-03-15T00:38:04+00:00 64bc099c97abc7b2657351629615a8e9f43d6458 commit 2ee0a07028d2cde6e131b73f029dae2b93c50f3a upstream. Currently the maximum noise floor limit is set as too high (-60dB). The assumption of having a higher threshold limit is that it would help de-sensitize the receiver (reduce phy errors) from continuous interference. But when we have a bursty interference where there are collisions and then free air time and if the receiver is desensitized too much, it will miss the normal packets too. Lets make use of chips specific min, nom and max limits always. This patch helps to improve the connection stability in congested networks.

Driver rtl8192ce when used with the RTL8188CE device would start at about 20 Mbps on a 54 Mbps connection, but quickly drop to 1 Mbps. One of the symptoms is that the AP would need to retransmit each packet 4 of 5 times before the driver would acknowledge it. Recovery is possible only by unloading and reloading the driver. This problem was reported at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=770207. The problem is due to a missing update of the gain setting.
