Hi,
I have my WL1837MOD configured for 2x2 MIMO but when I connect to my AP, it only establishes an RX rate of MCS7 65Mbps. Shouldn't it have a higher rx bit rate for 2x2 MIMO?
Here are the commands I used
From swra489.pdf...
Mapping of ht_mode:
MIMO: use wl18xx.ht.mode=0
SISO40: use wl18xx.ht.mode=1 (default)
SISO20: use wl18xx.ht.mode=2
• Location of configuration bin file: /lib/firmware/ti-connectivity/wl18xx-conf.bin
root@am335x-evm:/usr/sbin/wlconf# ./wlconf -i /lib/firmware/ti-connectivity/wl18xx-conf.bin --get | egrep -i ht.mode
wl18xx.ht.mode = 0x00
root@am335x-evm:/usr/share/wl18xx# ./sta_start.sh
root@am335x-evm:/usr/share/wl18xx# Successfully initialized wpa_supplicant
root@am335x-evm:/usr/share/wl18xx# ./sta_connect-ex.sh bwc_comcast_24 WPA-PSK blablabla
