RE: Performance of ath10k

[Trevor Cullen]

There's much debate going on in my circles about this card. It's based on
the QCA XB140 reference design which supposedly supports 11a,b,g,n, ac at
2.4G or 5G (not concurrent).

So does ath10k support this card fully?

FWIW I'm using ath10k on my main AP at home on 5G (and ath9k on 2.4G) and I
haven't recently had any major problems preventing use. The uptime right now
is:

11:15:46 up 17 days, 16:39,  load average: 0.13, 0.11, 0.13

But as I'm the ath10k maintainer I'm biased :)

Fully? You do understand that there are a LOT of features in 802.11 :)

Few things which come to my mind:

* XB140 needs 10.1.467.2-1 firmware and Ad-Hoc is not supported in that
  firmware

* DFS works only on ETSI region

* mac80211 doesn't support VHT on 2.4 G

The WLE900VX appears to work as well as the CUS223, at least.

I have not tried any other ath10k NICs yet..but will order some
when vendors start making them available...

Thanks,
Ben

Possible mesh as well?

Yeah, ath10k doesn't support mesh at all right now (due to the
firmware). But it would be great to have that.

Performance of ath10k

[Vu Hai NGUYEN]

Hi guys,
I'm doing an internship for6 month and my mission is implementation a module of 802.11ac in a mini cpu to create an access point of wifi. 
After looking in the internet for a while, I found this potential product from Compex: http://www.compex.com.sg/productdetailinfo.asp?model=WLE900VX
I wonder if is there anyone here have tried this with the driver ath10k and does it work well or there's still many bugs?
I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
Thanks in advance,
