The last person to touch this was bernhard; I don't know if he has
tinkered with the 6200 stuff though.

Would you mind trying this instead:

ifconfig wlan0 -ampdutx

Once you've associated (ie, once HT has been enabled), and then run
dhclient and start doing traffic.
I'd like to see if it's a general HT issue or whether it's the TX
aggregation code in iwn that needs tinkering with.

Thanks,


Adrian
