`I'm not here to insinuate anything, or criticise the driver.` Are you sure: "rtl8xxxu won't honour that for the data frames." "You should do a real world test before declaring...

Some additional information how hcxlabtool change the values (e.g. frequency, rate, bandwidth) by NL80211: https://github.com/ZerBea/wifi_laboratory/blob/main/hcxlabtool.c#L2856 Interface accept it and change its settings (as confirmed by the monitor interface).

To make sure, it's no coincidence, I changed the rate via NL80211 to 1MB/sec (that can easily be done by changing some code lines in hcxlabtool). The monitor interface confirmed...

If you're right, that the driver doesn't honor this settings, I have to call my entire environment (monitor interface, measurement procedure, Wireshark) into question.

Thanks for your explanation. Maybe we are talking about different things and I apologize for the insinuation: The target of hcxdumptool/hcxlabtool is to retrieve an EAPOL M1 frame (possible including...

BTW: It looks like we can't trust the debug output of dmesg, too: hcxlabtool set rate to 6MBit/sec. The independent monitor interface (mt76) confirm that the frames are transmitted with...

Yes iw first, hcxdmptool second orhcxdumtool first and iw second, both results in the same problem. First I thought the problem is related to this: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217205#c77 But that isn't the...

The good old hal driver.

Here we go debug level 4: ``` [127890.483193] RTW: module init start [127890.483201] RTW: rtl8192eu v5.6.4_35685.20191108_COEX20171113-0047 [127890.483203] RTW: rtl8192eu BT-Coex version = COEX20171113-0047 [127890.483223] RTW: rtw_inetaddr_notifier_register [127890.483264] usbcore: registered new...

The idea to debug the (working) hal driver is great.
