Subject: Can't get hostapd to start, channels are all passive-scanning?
Date: Fri, 13 May 2011 16:36:08 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4DCDC068.9060307@candelatech.com> (raw)

Any idea what would cause all of my 5Ghz channels to be passive
scanning (which keeps hostapd from being able to use them, evidently)

		Frequencies:
			* 5180 MHz [36] (17.0 dBm) (passive scanning, no IBSS)
			* 5200 MHz [40] (17.0 dBm) (passive scanning, no IBSS)
			* 5220 MHz [44] (17.0 dBm) (passive scanning, no IBSS)
			* 5240 MHz [48] (17.0 dBm) (passive scanning, no IBSS)
			* 5260 MHz [52] (18.0 dBm) (passive scanning, no IBSS, radar detection)
			* 5280 MHz [56] (18.0 dBm) (passive scanning, no IBSS, radar detection)
			* 5300 MHz [60] (18.0 dBm) (passive scanning, no IBSS, radar detection)
			* 5320 MHz [64] (18.0 dBm) (passive scanning, no IBSS, radar detection)

Another ath9k nearby, with same 'iw reg get' info and a slightly
different ath9k NIC shows this:


		Frequencies:
			* 5180 MHz [36] (17.0 dBm)
			* 5200 MHz [40] (17.0 dBm)
			* 5220 MHz [44] (17.0 dBm)
			* 5240 MHz [48] (17.0 dBm)
			* 5260 MHz [52] (20.0 dBm) (passive scanning, no IBSS, radar detection)
			* 5280 MHz [56] (20.0 dBm) (passive scanning, no IBSS, radar detection)
			* 5300 MHz [60] (20.0 dBm) (passive scanning, no IBSS, radar detection)
			* 5320 MHz [64] (20.0 dBm) (passive scanning, no IBSS, radar detection)

Thanks,
Ben
