It should be a hexagonal lattice (H and not P) and the angle gamma should be 120 and not 60, and also the positions need to be changed then. With an "H" lattice, wien2k keeps the symmetry properly and is less affected by rounding errors. b) And secondly, you did not answer, how you got the "gap" (from scf-file, output1 or bandstructure or DOS ???) Forget DOS (there is a smearing parameter set by default !) when you use a H lattice and meshes which can be divided by 3 (because K has 1/3,1/3,0 coordinates and only with a mesh like 3 3 1, 6 6 1, 9 9 1, ... the "K"-point is in the mesh), you can use :GAP from scf, otherwise NOT. (best is to use a mesh conpatible with 2 and 3, so 6,6,1 or 12,12,1 ..., because this includes also the M point.
