WiFi Packets loss while not used

Post by screemer_ua » 2015/03/28 11:52:00

Recently bought Asus PCE-N10 wireless adapter.
Downloaded official driver, make, make install and so on. Now it works but with some issue.

It constantly losing incoming packets:

Approximately lose 50% of incoming requests.

When I run ssh console and ask this system to ping any resource - it stops losing any incoming/outgoing packets and works perfect. Strange behavior, works fine when frequently used for outgoing traffic and loss packets when send nothing.

I suggest that this issue could be related with power management and switched it off by:

Code: Select all

iwconfig wlan0 power off
but problem still persists.

Here is my iwconfig:

Code: Select all

# iwconfig wlan0
wlan0     802.11bgn  ESSID:"Zy******38"  Nickname:"rtl8192CE"
          Mode:Managed  Frequency=2.422 GHz  Access Point: F2:B2:DC:5E:2A:38

How to resolve packets loosening when no outgoing traffic?

Instead of compiling your own, check elrepo and see if they have a driver there.

Have changed driver onto driver provided with kmod-r8168 package from ELRepo.
Problem still actual.

Here is guys who met same issue, but haven't found any solution:
