Hi Johannes,

Sorry for the late reply, I was travelling around the world ...
I have now tested the =2 and =4 settings at home, with the following
outcome:

With the latest, I've extended 11n_disable to have more bits.

11n_disable=1 will disable HT completely
11n_disable=2 will disable TX aggregation
11n_disable=4 will disable RX aggregation

11n_disabled=2:
lots of messages
  Open BA session requested for 00:0a:79:eb:56:10 tid 0
  BA request denied - HW unavailable for tid 0
and
  Rx BA session stop requested for 00:0a:79:eb:56:10 tid 0 inititator reason: 0
  Rx A-MPDU request on tid 0 result 0

Connection is stable for quite some time, but after 1-2 hours I got
a bad hang, grinding to a halt. pings to kernel.org gives 26% 
packet loss, but the rest of the packets are fast 130ms 

(Isn't that a strange thing - 25+% packet loss and all others are fast?)
I assume the packaet loss is related to the above messages.


11n_disabled=4:

lots of messages
  Rx A-MPDU request on tid 0 result -22
and at some point ping timeouts of 80+ secs (!) and then total hang
(as far as I remember)

Best wishes

Norbert
