Hello every one,
I'm newbie and I just had a dumb question :D
Can someone explain to me that why hostapd use 802.11n Annex J to set up channel like this way:
HT40- HT40+
40,48,56,64,104,112,.. 36,44,52,60,100,108,...
It is not the same information as debugfs file "ht40allow_map". For example, If I set channel for a monitor
interface using "iw", I can have:
channel 44 (5220 MHz), width: 40 MHz, center1: 5210 MHz
channel 44 (5220 MHz), width: 40 MHz, center1: 5230 MHz
But if I set up an AP using hostapd I can only have the 2nd one as channel 44 allowed only in HT40+.
I also have another questions: I can set up channel from 36 to 128 for 802.11ac mode using ath10k and
hostapd. But both channels 132 and 136 is automatically converted to another channel (100,116 or whatever..)
Is this normal???. And channel 140 is only enabled in HT20 (not HT40 and VHT80) for Atheros card?
Thanks,
