When I try to use TDMA options of FreeBSD on atheros chips, I found it works
fine with point to point applications.

But when I try to set tdmaslotcnt to bigger than 2, it give the following
error message:

ifconfig: SIOCS80211: Invalid argument

Then I try to read man page of ifconfig to get some help, and it is said
that current implementation of TDMA is only tested with two stations.But the
value of the slot cout may be at most 8.

So now the TDMA of FreeBSD only support point to point connection?

How could I setup a TDMA network bigger than 2 nodes?
