[Sunny Mistry]

Hi,

I wanted to know if it is possible to log the rates at which receiving
packets come in at.

Thanks!

Hi Sunny,

Yes, if you put your device in monitor mode and parse the Radiotap header,
you can derive the data rate. For 802.11n, you need to combine multiple
fields because the data rate not only depends on the MCS but on the channel
width and guard interval length as well. It might be helpful to check the
Wireshark source code in this case.


Kind regards,
Pieter Robyns

Hi Pieter,

Is there anyway I can check the receive rate in AP/Master mode?

Thanks,

Hi Sunny,

Yes, you can add a new virtual monitor mode interface, for example with the
"iw" tool, and run your master mode interface in parallel.
