WiFi Client Interface 5 GHz Channel Test Spreadsheet
This form is provided to help automate the process of collecting test
information on channel support in 5GHz 802.11a and 802.11an client
interfaces. The channel support spreadsheet can be seen at:

The testbed that I have used to test channel support on client interfaces
is based on creating an SSID (example: "5ghztest") and assigning it to the
5GHz radio on an AP in my office. That way the client interface can be made
to associate with the correct AP as the channels are changed on the AP to
test interface channel support.
Next, at least one channel in each UNII channel group is tested by setting
the AP to that channel and checking to see of the client can associate with
the test AP. Finally, an "iperf" test is run from the client machine to an
iperf server to make sure that the client interface can exchange traffic
over the channel being tested and that performance on that channel is
acceptable. Testing at least one channel from each UNII channel group
results in four AP reconfigurations and four tests per client interface.
