The following reply was made to PR kern/179269; it has been noted by GNATS. From: dfilter@FreeBSD.ORG (dfilter service) To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org Cc: Subject: Re: kern/179269: commit references a PR Date: Mon, 3 Jun 2013 19:14:42 +0000 (UTC) Author: adrian Date: Mon Jun 3 19:14:29 2013 New Revision: 251340 URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/251340 Log: Fix receive on the AR9285 (Kite) with only one antenna connected. The main problem here is that fast and driver RX diversity isn't actually configured; I need to figure out why that is. That said, this makes the single-antenna connected AR9285 and AR2427 (AR9285 w/ no 11n) work correctly.
