Hi,

Try setting it up without 11n enabled:

ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev ath0 wlanmode hostap channel 6:g

.. and if that doesn't help, try with 11n enabled but without ampdutx:

ifconfig wlan0 -ampdutx

I'm not using the AR5416 as an AP at the moment but it should be ok.
I'm definitely using it as a station though.

Can your try -HEAD instead? I don't plan on MFCing things myself back
to stable/10; i rely on others who are actively using stable/10 to do
it.
