When setting the distance, the acktimeout/ctstimeout/slottime values are
double the distance setting.[[BR]]
Calculated using (5.32uS * miles) * 2 and no fudge factor[[BR]]
{{{
12 miles/19_312 meters
5.32uS * 12 miles = 63.84uS (one way)
63.84 * 2 = 127.68uS (round-trip)
12 miles = 19 312.128 meters
athctrl -i wifiX -d 19312
cat /proc/sys/dev/wifiX/distance : 19350
cat /proc/sys/dev/wifiX/actimetout : 274
