[Gumstix-users] mjpg-streamer and netpro-vx wi-fi problem (2.6.21 kernel default build)

[coldwarcomms <col...@gm...>]

I have a USB webcam which I am trying to stream the video from over wi-fi. I
have compiled and use mjpg-streamer to do the network streaming. The problem
is that after a few minutes the wlan0 driver crashes somehow. I get the
message NETDEV WATCHDOG: wlan0: transmit timed out. This seems to only
happen when there is a lot of traffic such as when the video is being
streamed to a client connection. During streaming I also get a lot of Tx
excessive reties, Invalid Misc, and RX invalid frag from iwconfig. The Link
Quality is shown as 0/10 which is weird. The Signal Level hovers around -25
dBm and Noise Level is around -93 dBm. I have to reboot each time this
happens to get the Wi-Fi working again, but it will crash shortly after the
video starts streaming. I was wondering if anyone has had an issue with the
nepro-vx wi-fi driver crashing, and what I can do to prevent this from
happening.

Thank you
