Would you mind giving me an example of how to setup 802.11n correctly on
both the hostap side and the client side?
assume both cards are Ath 9300 devices..

id like to do security on wifi, but I cant figure out if I am required to
have hosthapd for that.. or if I can do it all from rc.conf..
I guess im not exactly clear on What hostapd is , and if it is a
requirement in WIFI..
