Hello folks. I recently bought a APU2C4 for the solely purpose to have it as a all in one FreeBSD router, firewall, HOSTAPD. It has got two mini PCIe Compex WLE200NX, which uses the Atheros AR9280 chipset. ath0: <Atheros 9280> mem 0xfe400000-0xfe40ffff at device 0.0 on pci1 ath0: [HT] enabling HT modes ath0: [HT] 1 stream STBC receive enabled ath0: [HT] 1 stream STBC transmit enabled ath0: [HT] 2 RX streams; 2 TX streams ath0: AR9280 mac 128.2 RF5133 phy 13.0 ath0: 2GHz radio: 0x0000; 5GHz radio: 0x00c0 However though, I am running into a sort of nightmare with getting 802.11n to work with hostapd. Line 6: unknown configuration item 'ieee80211n' I could be totally wrong, but from what I understood IEEE80211N is disabled both from the hostapd binary included with system base(I am on FreeBSD 11-relese p9), as well as from the one in ports/pkg. Does this mean that I won't be getting no 802.11n love? If so, is there any reason of why 802.11n has been disabled from hostapd? If this turns out to be true, I honestly don't know whether is worth to venture compiling hostapd from source or rather going with pfsense, since they got it patched some 3 years ago. I appreciate your help. Thanks, Pietro
