b1nary.k0a1a Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 hi all, may be it was mentioned here before i'm not sure, BUT i noticed very unstable signal strength with fon2100+jasager1.0 wavemon 'link quality' bar was fluctuating 15 - 115 the reason was that the madwifi driver is constantly switching antennas and since fon2100 has got only one, 50% of the time it is 'off'. the solution are these commands: sysctl -w dev.wifi0.rxantenna=1 sysctl -w dev.wifi0.txantenna=1 sysctl -w dev.ath.diversity=0 now link quality is much better. perhaps there are more parameters to tweak, any clues? would be great to extend the range of these little bastards.
