Great signal, stays connected but pings time out

jober · Wed Jan 11, 2006 5:45 am

Things have been runnig great till this morning and now we're timeing out with ping in a bad way. The signal is -59 and it never loses connection. The network is routed not bridged or running WDS.
(finrouter MT2.8.28 with cm9 cards)

Any ideas!

Overload? Virii? Defective radio card? Beelzebub? Baal? Or worse, woman scorned?

the plural virii is that of the nonexistent word virius

LoL, no, i mean to type "viri" but of course the most proper is "viruses" that's something that has stuck with me since my asm coding days. Back then we also shortened it to "vx". Don't really know the current terminology.
But i'll try to remember "viruses" in the future

incorrect again. the most probable plural ir "vira". "virus" is a neuter gender, but -i plural is used for masculine nouns. "viri" is a singular genetive of "virus"

Back then we also shortened it to "vx".

While "vx"* is indeed a major pain in the RTOS, I wouldn't quite label it a virus, it's really more of a trojan.

As to the topic at hand: Reboot?, Change channels?, Packet sniff?, Post more details?

Sounds like interference to me (so does the OT posts

)

Jober, I've seen this same thing before - great signal, but bad pings and very little throughput, if any.

Jober, I have this same problem. The CM9 don´t work fine in solve version.

CM9 work fine in 2.9.8. I test this card with 2.9.11 and work fine, but the bandwith is superior in 2.9.8.

I would suggest using wireless-test, that definitely has improvements for performance over the standard v2.9 wireless driver. Of course, it needs to be tested some to make sure there are no problems.
