[ath9k-devel] Enabling 4.9 GHz

[Pannirselvam Kanagaratnam]

Hello,

I would like to know how to enable 4.9 GHz on ath9k. The module I am 
using is based on AR9590.

Regards,

Pannir

Whats the purpose of this ? It is illegal to use that frequency I think :-)

[ath9k-devel] Enabling 4.9 GHz

[Adrian Chadd]

hi!

I think you'll have to hack up a custom regulatory domain database
that includes the frequencies your device is licenced to work on.

The things that need to happen:

* regdb support, or the driver/802.11 layer won't let you do anything;
* make sure your AR9590 has the "I'm allowed to do 4.9GHz!" bit in the
OTP EEPROM set, or the NIC may not let you;
* then make sure the AR9590 has calibration data for the 4.9GHz
channel(s), or things won't work very well.

Thanks Adrian. 2 & 3 are done. Will look into regdb.

[ath9k-devel] Enabling 4.9 GHz

[Pannirselvam Kanagaratnam]

Adrian,

I got the db.txt modified.

root at p1023:/usr/sbin# iw reg get
country US:
         (2402 - 2472 @ 40), (30, 0)
         (4940 - 4990 @ 20), (20, 0)
         (5170 - 5250 @ 80), (20, 0)
         (5250 - 5330 @ 80), (23, 0)
         (5735 - 5835 @ 80), (30, 0)

However, I am unable to set the frequency for 4950 MHz.

root at p1023:/usr/sbin# iw dev wlan0 set freq 5180
root at p1023:/usr/sbin# iw dev wlan0 set freq 4950
command failed: Invalid argument (-22)

Anything else I need to do?

Regards,

Pannir

Pannir -
It is ath5k driver code, but possibly a good starting point if you want to
do similar mods in ath9k !
(I assume atleast the configuration parts of the driver are similar,
although ath9k is way different
in packet processing etc)

HTH,
Abhinav
