Re: [ath9k-devel] Progress on Ath9k HT support on Adhoc mode

Hi Jouni and Mohammed, Thanks very much for the quick reply. As I am implementing a project that requires a 802.11N mesh network at low (or zero actually, for a poor area deployment) budget. May I ask what is the progress in that end (mesh over 11N)? Or if I want to jump in, which part of th

Dear all, After some research done on ath9k's support of HT on Adhoc mode, I found on the mac80211 driver page (http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers) that ath9k seems to support IBSS *and/or* mesh *and/or* 802.11N: DriverManufacturercfg80211APIBSSmeshmonitorPH
