Hi,
I was told that 802.11n code for atheros wifi cards was committed to
FreeBSD 10.0.
I am currently running a machine with FreeBSD 10.0-RC4 and the following
wifi card
vendor = 'Atheros Communications Inc.'
device = 'AR9287 Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express)'
class = network
I loaded the following modules at boot time by placing the following in
/boot/loader.conf
if_ath_load="YES"
if_ath_pci_load="YES"
When typing ifconfig -v wlan0 list channel I only get
Channel 6 : 2437 MHz 11g ht/40+
and the like but no 11n
my /etc/rc.conf looks like this
...
create_args_wlan0="wlanmode hostap"
ifconfig_wlan0="ssid myssid mode 11n up WPA"...
ifconfig shows me that the systems is running 802.11g only
inet6 fe80::12fe:edff:fe75:3c2b%wlan0 prefixlen 64 tentative
scopeid 0x5
nd6 options=29<PERFORMNUD,IFDISABLED,AUTO_LINKLOCAL>
media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect mode 11ng <hostap>
status: running
ssid myssid channel 4 (2427 MHz 11g ht/40+) bssid 10:fe:ed:75:3c:2b
regdomain 32924 country CN indoor ecm authmode WPA2/802.11i
What am I doing wrong or was 802.11n not committed to FreeBSD 10 ?
Many thanks!
