It may be a bit before I can get back to working on this effort, but I am reading the email and it will help me when I do have time to work on this again. If you have time, can you see if you can get encryption working with ath9k to ath9k? I could not get that working, and I am not sure if it is my supplicant setup or if I have some other bugs somewhere... Please post config files if you do get it working. And, what is ath9k to ath9k transfer rates?
