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 media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect mode 11ng 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 ?
