Hi,

   The intel AX210 family of wireless adapters don't seem to support transmission of Buffer Status Report (BSR). Transmission of BSR is essential for UL OFDMA to work efficiently.

Is there a plan to support this in future driver/firmware releases ?

 

Please see the attached picture of Association Request from the sniffer log.

The kernel version used is 5.19rc3

Driver Version used is

Firmware Version used is 73

(iwlwifi-ty-a0-gf-a0-73.ucode
iwlwifi-ty-a0-gf-a0.pnvm)

Hello ramachikkala,


After working on this, please be aware that BSR(Buffer Status Report) for UL OFDMA is indeed disabled for Linux and there is no ETA of enabling this feature. We recommend you to talk to your Intel representative or FAE directly about requesting this feature.


 If you need any additional information, please submit a new question, as this thread will no longer be monitored.


Best regards,
