Beaglebone Black + FreeBSD + USB WiFi = WAP?

[Chris Gordon]

Poor performance was still present this morning, but as soon as I restarted the network interfaces, everything returned to “full speed”.  This seems to confirm the idea of something happening over time in the kernel as opposed to some congestion or other environmental factor.  This evening, I’ll look at either updating your bug report or opening a new one.

Agree.  At least in my case, it’s something that isn’t a problem initially and then builds up/falls over and becomes a problem.

I started to setup the full access point config with Linux for testing, but just didn’t have the patience to deal with it.  I’m not sure that will reveal much given what I’ve found so far.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
