Subject: [ath9k-devel] AR-5008 HT support
Date: Sat, 27 Mar 2010 18:46:24 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4baeb4f0.48c3f10a.1ca4.ffffb31b@mx.google.com> (raw)
Hey all,
I have a AR-5008 that I use as an access point. While I get excellent
performance with it, any attempt to enable any of the HT capabilities flags in
hostapd.conf causes hostapd to fail at start-up with,
rmdir[ctrl_interface]: no such file or directory
Any ideas what might cause such a failure? I'm fairly certain that this card
should have no problem with HT. Further information included below. I will
gladly try any patches people might want to check. Thanks,
- Ben
