 Priority:  normal             |  Milestone:
Component:  luci               |    Version:  Barrier Breaker 14.07
 Keywords:  LuCI HT 11n adhoc  |
-------------------------------+-----------------------------------
 Version: Barrier Breaker rc3
 HW: Netgear WNDR3800

 I used LuCI to config two adhoc node. The /etc/config/wireless file
 content was:
 '''

 config wifi-device 'radio0'
         option type 'mac80211'
         option hwmode '11g'
         option path 'pci0000:00/0000:00:11.0'
         option country 'US'
         option channel '6'
         option txpower '17'
         option htmode 'HT20'

 config wifi-device 'radio1'
         option type 'mac80211'
         option hwmode '11a'
         option path 'pci0000:00/0000:00:12.0'
         option country 'US'
         option txpower '17'
         option channel '149'
         option htmode 'HT20'

 config wifi-iface
         option device 'radio0'
         option mode 'ap'
         option encryption 'none'
         option ssid 'OpenWrt88'
         option network 'lan'

 config wifi-iface
         option device 'radio0'
         option encryption 'none'
         option ssid 'mesh2'
         option mode 'adhoc'
         option network 'mesh2'
         option bssid 'AE:EF:8A:7E:31:44'

 config wifi-iface
         option device 'radio1'
         option encryption 'none'
         option ssid 'smesh'
         option mode 'adhoc'
         option network 'smesh'

 These two nodes were placed very near. Then I used iperf to test the
 throughput.

 The throughput of 2.4G adhoc was 50~60 mbps, but the throughput of 5G
 adhoc was only about 22mbps. "iw" reported that the 5G device is "no HT",
 but the 2.4G device was ok.

 Then I changed the HTmode from 'HT20' to 'HT40'. It had no effect to 5G
 adhoc. But the 2.4G adhoc became unreachable from each other.

 After that I used "iw" to config nodes with the same parameters. All the
 HT was supported. The throughput for 5G adhoc with HT40 was about 100mbps.

 So it must be a problem from LuCI or UCI config system. The config system
 only support HT20 for 2.4G adhoc and no HT for 5G adhoc at all.
