[OpenWrt-Devel] ar71xx with kernel 4.14 - a few test results

[Tom Psyborg]

Hi Dirk

You say: "works quite fine, both radios are available,
 no issues at all"

but no feedback on how it actually performs...

From my test I got throughput of 215Mbps on 2.4GHz wifi with 4.9
After upgraded to 4.14 the throughput dropped to 185-190Mbps. same
device same settings and testing conditions.
