We saw that on certain platforms in certain places we keep switching between two APs and eventually get the same RSSI. Debugging showed that we have a very big difference between the two antennas. Ant A can hear AP A very well (-60) but AP B very bad (-80) Ant B can hear AP B very well (-60) but AP A very bad (-80) When the device associates to AP A, it'll learn to use Ant A. If the device uses one single antenna to receive the scan results, it may hear the AP it is currently associated to on the second antenna and get bad results. Because of that, the wpa_supplicant will roam to the other AP and the same scenario will repeat itself: Association to AP A (Ant A reports -60). Scan on Ant A: AP A: -60, AP B: -80 Scan on Ant B: AP A: -80, AP A: -60 ==> ROAM. Association to AP B (Ant B reports -60) Scan on Ant A: AP A: -60, AP B: -80 ==> ROAM Etc... Improve this by querying the signal level of the current AP using drv_signal_poll() instead of relying on the signal level that we get from the scan results. Also update the throughput estimate based on the likely more accurate values for the current association. Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com> |

wpa_supplicant and hostapd -------------------------- Copyright (c) 2002-2019, Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi> and contributors All Rights Reserved. These programs are licensed under the BSD license (the one with advertisement clause removed). If you are submitting changes to the project, please see CONTRIBUTIONS file for more instructions. This package may include either wpa_supplicant, hostapd, or both. See README file respective subdirectories (wpa_supplicant/README or hostapd/README) for more details. Source code files were moved around in v0.6.x releases and compared to earlier releases, the programs are now built by first going to a subdirectory (wpa_supplicant or hostapd) and creating build configuration (.config) and running 'make' there (for Linux/BSD/cygwin builds).
