Comment 35 for bug 1730924

I'm experiencing a variety of problems with this driver as well.

Using Linux v4.6-rc1-64-g6ddf37d, firmware 15.68.7.p66.

The first failure is an inability to connect. This is sporadic; it seems to happen about 1 time in 4 boots, but one time I had it three or four times in a row. I will attach a dmesg log with debug increased part way through. It seems as though this may be similar to the problem reported here:

The second failure is horrific performance, accompanied by constantly repeated mwifiex_process_sleep_confirm_resp: cmd size is 0 messages. The user experience is harder to quantify; you get absolutely terrible network performance (7-10% packet loss), and general instability. I'll attach a dmesg log for that as well, again with debug increased part way through. This is similar to what Weng Xuetian reported in Comment 14.

Finally, as I use this device, I find one consistent and persistent oddity. That is, even when everything is 'working', I get poor latency connecting to the device. That is, my latency when I ping 'out' is fine (< 10 ms, not much variation). But when I ping the device from a different system, I get highly variable latency. (Ranging from 10 ms to 4000 ms). No dropped packets, but horrible latency. You really notice it when you're ssh'd in :-/.
