Bug ID: 289202 Summary: Missing CN regulatory domain and 11ac/DFS support in regdomain.xml Product: Base System Version: 15.0-CURRENT Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: wireless Assignee: wireless@FreeBSD.org Reporter: ykla...@gmail.com Description: The current lib/lib80211/regdomain.xml is missing critical regulatory domain entries and modern Wi-Fi standard support: No CN (China) regulatory domain defined. This makes it impossible to configure devices correctly under Chinese regulatory requirements. Lack of 802.11ac (Wi-Fi 5) support. Most regional definitions only include 11a/b/g/n, but not 11ac. Incomplete DFS support. Even for FCC/3/4 domains, DFS bands are defined only for legacy 11a/n, but not for 11ac. This makes the regulatory database outdated and insufficient for current Wi-Fi usage. Suggested fix: Add a new CN regulatory domain entry covering the appropriate 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequency bands, including DFS channels. Extend existing regulatory domains (FCC, FCC3, FCC4, ETSI, etc.) with 11ac support, both DFS and non-DFS channels. See also the Linux wireless-regdb as reference: https://wireless.docs.kernel.org/en/latest/en/developers/regulatory/wireless-regdb.html . Impact: Without these updates, FreeBSD users cannot properly use modern Wi-Fi 5 (11ac) in many regions, including China. This limits performance, feature parity, and compliance. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
