Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):
I get same problem using a Z-COM XG623 minPCI card (AR2413 11b&g modes) in
AP mode.
The failure is due to ieee80211_check_mode_consistency() that doesn't
validate 11b (2) mode because current channel (vap->iv_des_channel) is an
11g-dyn (CCK+OFDM) channel.
A possible workaround is set current channel to 0 (any channel), select
the requested mode (iwpriv athx mode 11b) and then configure again the
rigth operating channel.
This not fix the problem but allows 11b mode operations.
