Tx excessive retries:67640, 5min after clean boot.

nanw@archbox ~ $ iwconfig

          Mode:Managed  Frequency:2.452 GHz  Access Point: BC:AE:C5:A5:11:88

          Retry  long limit:7   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
          Power Management:off
          Link Quality=58/70  Signal level=-52 dBm  
          Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
          Tx excessive retries:67640  Invalid misc:1754   Missed beacon:0

lo        no wireless extensions.

Intel Ultimate-N 6300.

I know 11n_disable can fix this, but that's only a workaround. 67640 is a huge number......

After set 11n_disable=2, 'Tx excessive retries' became normal, but 'Invalid misc' is still high.

archbox nanw # iwconfig 
wlp4s0    IEEE 802.11abgn  ESSID:"(Unknown)"

          Encryption key:off
          Power Management:off
          Link Quality=55/70  Signal level=-55 dBm  
          Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
          Tx excessive retries:2  Invalid misc:1134   Missed beacon:0

Any suggestions?
