Does RTL8720DN support NoAck policy?

Technical Discussion

Hi everyone,

Is the RTL8720DN, when configured in STA mode, able to support the IEEE 802.11e NoAck policy – i.e., suppress all MAC layer acknowledgements to the packets it receives?

If the answer is yes, how do I configure it in this way?

Thanks!

Hi Xavier,

I can see there is such a macro defined in the NDA standard SDK for WLAN driver for MAC protocol, but I can’t be sure if it works as you intended.

Hope it helps~

Hi Simon,

I would like to dig a little deeper into this old question.
1- How can I access the NoAck macro you mentioned in the standard SDK?
2- I also have the same question if the RTL8720DN is configured as an Access Point: is is able to send data frames without expecting ACKs from the receiving STAs? If yes, how can I configure it to do this?

Thanks!
