Been wanting to check out 802.11n operation, what with all the effort
Adrian, Bernhard and
others have been putting into the project ..Seems its really getting
'up to speed'.

When AR9227-based cards became available locally at a good price I
snarfed a couple.

One card is running in a FreeBSD 10-current machine in hostap mode and
I'm trying to
figure out whether its connected in .11n mode.

ifconfig wlan0 shows:

wlan0: flags=8943<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST>
metric 0 mtu 1500
        ether f8:d1:11:39:3d:e5
        nd6 options=29<PERFORMNUD,IFDISABLED,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>
        media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect mode 11ng <hostap>
        status: running

Looking at the section with: 11g ht/40-

Does this indicate 11g mode?

The card on the client end is the same type hardware about 12 feet
away, signal strength
should not be a problem :)
