Re: N-only access point on FreeBSD 11

pure-n ; HT-greenfield mode.

Ie, there's no 11bg interop, everythingo n the channel is 11n, so the
PPDU doesn't include the legacy pieces before the HT pieces. Thus the
packet timing is slightly shorter.

I think though that the savings gained isn't all that much. I'd prefer
that we had a cleaner way to configure disabling say, 11b only clients
from associating, or easier ways of setting the lowest basic rate(s)
to use.

N-only access point on FreeBSD 11

[kbenjamin Coplon]

Hi, I'm trying to configure an ATH3980 as a wireless access point.
I would like it to operate in N-only mode, but for some reason I can only
make it work with GN.

Any advice as to how I can make this work would be very helpful.
Thank You

Here is the relevant section of  /etc/rc.conf

and here is the output of "ifconfig wlan0"
