Wi-Fi Turbo Vita v0.7.2 by juanjsebgarcia

The PS Vita's Wi-Fi, fixed: faster, quicker to respond, and it reconnects by itself.
A taiHEN plugin (kernel + user module) for HENkaku/Ensō on firmware 3.60, 3.65 and 3.68. The Vita's Wi-Fi works, but Sony set it up for 2011:

It sleeps between packets. Power save is on by default, so the first packet after any pause waits for the radio to wake up: ~100 ms, often 200+. You feel that in game streaming and remote shells.
It uses half the channel. The radio handles 40 MHz channels, but the driver only ever asks for 20 MHz, which caps the link at 72 Mbps.
It gives up at boot. If the auto-join misses your network once, the Vita just sits there offline until you open Settings and tap Connect.
It gets dropped when idle. Many access points disconnect quiet clients after a few minutes, and the Vita doesn't always come back.
Wi-Fi Turbo fixes each of these, measured on real hardware.

> Runs on every firmware from 3.60 to 3.74. 3.60, 3.65 and 3.68 are tested on a console; the others are not yet. The *MAC address* option is experimental and tested on 3.60.

## Fixed since v0.7.1

- **No more battery drain with Wi-Fi off.** *Keep Wi-Fi on* stops the Vita going to sleep by itself, so that Wi-Fi stays connected. It kept doing that after Wi-Fi had been switched off or airplane mode turned on, when there is nothing to keep connected: a Vita left alone like that never slept and ran its battery down. Now, with Wi-Fi off or airplane mode on, the Vita goes to sleep on its timer exactly as it does without Wi-Fi Turbo, and the idle keep-alive pauses too. Switch Wi-Fi back on and *Keep Wi-Fi on* takes over again. Thanks to u/ali_ihsan21 on Reddit for the report.

## Also new

- **The log says when the Vita may sleep, and why.** `wifiturbo.log` now gets a line each time *Keep Wi-Fi on* starts or stops holding off sleep, with the reason (on battery, charging, Wi-Fi off, power button pressed), so a battery report can show what was going on.

Everything else is unchanged from v0.7.1.

## Install or update

1. Download `wifiturbo_kernel.skprx`, `wifiturbo.suprx` and `wifiturbo_settings.suprx` below.
2. Copy them to `ur0:tai/`, replacing the older copies. Using the quick menu toggles? Also replace `wifiturbo_qm.suprx` in your `QuickMenuReborn` folder.
3. **Updating from v0.7.0 or v0.7.1:** nothing to change in `config.txt`, and your settings are kept.
**Updating from v0.6.2 or older:** `wifiturbo_settings.suprx` is a new file since v0.7.0, so copy it too; see the [v0.7.0 notes](https://github.com/juanjsebgarcia/vita-turbo-wifi/releases/tag/v0.7.0).
**New install:** add the lines from the [README](https://github.com/juanjsebgarcia/vita-turbo-wifi#install) to your `config.txt`.
4. Reboot, then open *Settings → Network → Wi-Fi Turbo*.

If anything goes wrong, hold **L** while the Vita boots to skip all plugins.

## Testers: please report

[Open an issue](https://github.com/juanjsebgarcia/vita-turbo-wifi/issues) with your firmware, how you run HENkaku (Ensō, h-encore, HENlo), what you noticed, and `ur0:data/wifiturbo/wifiturbo.log` and `ur0:data/wifiturbo/wifiturbo_kernel.log`. **Redact your network name (SSID) and MAC addresses from the logs first.**

## Known limitations

- *MAC address* has only run on 3.60. Sony rebuilt the Wi-Fi driver in 3.71; the parts it uses are the same there, but 3.71 to 3.74 is untested on a console. With *Per network* on, a console where the address can't be set won't connect to Wi-Fi: choose *Default* to get back online.
- Changing the MAC address, the power profile or the receive buffer briefly drops the connection, which also ends any FTP transfer in progress.
- With **Keep Wi-Fi on** and Wi-Fi on, a screen that has turned off on its timer is not sleep: press the power button once to sleep the Vita.
- Only 3.60, 3.65 and 3.68 have run on a console so far. On the other versions a feature that can't find what it expects switches itself off and logs why, rather than risk a crash.
