The Intel® PRO/Wireless 2011B LAN Access Point keeps statistics for individual channels (frequencies). These identify channels that have difficulty transmitting or receiving due to retries.
The access point keeps statistics of packets with multiple retries. Use these statistics to identify severe occurrences of retries. Retries occur when the transmitting station fails to receive an acknowledgment for a transmitted packet. This lack of acknowledgment can result from:
Any one of these results causes both devices to suspend transmitting and retry later. Too many retries can indicate a system problem.
