If you set the rate to a static number (say, 2M), then possibly it won't attempt any changes, and you can at least know what is causing the packet loss. [..snip..] > ath_rate_ctl: 5M -> 11M (10 ok, 0 err, 0 retr) Now the signal got better, so it bumped it up to 11M.. > ath_start: encapsulation failure I have no idea what that is trying to tell you .. (besides the obvious) > ath_rate_ctl: 2M -> 1M (0 ok, 1 err, 1 retr) If you are down to 1M, I think you may need to check signal strength and such. I'd start with my testing near the AP (in sight of it at least).
