Subject: [PATCH wireless-next 2/8] wifi: rt2800: calibrate the crystal of RT3593 with the beacons
Date: Thu, 29 Oct 2026 21:47:43 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261029134752.1299130-3-hjf3108@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261029134752.1299130-1-hjf3108@gmail.com>
On a Netgear WNDA4100 (RT3593), as the adapter warms up, the
frequency offset drifts enough to affect the link quality.
In certain cases it can cause the link speed to drop
to 1Mbit/s or below.
Add a frequency calibration step function to RT3593 to use
the frequency offset obtained from the beacon frames of the AP
for tuning.
Test results:
before after
TX 27.7 28.5
RX 31.6 69.7
