No, you can have single stream HT devices. > 2) conf_is_ht(...) checks if mac80211 want us to use more than 1 > stream in channel No, conf_is_ht() tells you whether or not the current device configuration is set up to be on HT configuration. > 3) conf_is_ht40_minus(...) checks if we should use frequency below > current as additional 20MHz, so for example for channel 7 which is > 2,431->2,453 we should use additinal 20MHz in channel 3 which is > 2,411->2,433 Right it just means the secondary channel is on the lower part of the primary, ht40_plus means its above. > 4) conf_is_ht40_plus(...) checks if we should use frequency over > current as additional 20MHz, so for example for channel 3 which is > 2,411->2,433 we should use additinal 20MHz in channel 7 which is > 2,431->2,453 > > Is that correct? Almost, may want to read this: http://wireless.kernel.org/en/developers/Documentation/ieee80211/802.11n I hope that helps.
