The following reply was made to PR bin/164102; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Adrian Chadd <adrian@freebsd.org> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, ntai@smartfruit.com Cc: Subject: Re: bin/164102: hostapd not configured for 802.11n Date: Sat, 14 Jan 2012 12:57:30 -0800 Hi, I haven't tried mwl yet, but you should just be able to configure the interface as an 802.11n one: ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev mwl0 wlanmode hostap ifconfig wlan0 channel 6:ht/40 ifconfig wlan0 up .. then start hostapd. Hostapd doesn't require any 802.11n "stuff" to be configured - just make sure you only enable CCMP encryption. 802.11n doesn't work with TKIP. Please make sure you update to FreeBSD-8 STABLE as the -RELEASE code has significant issues with 802.11n. Adrian
