Subject: [ath9k-devel] AP Limitation because of ATH9K_HTC_MAX_STA

Hi,

I'm organizing all the technical stuff for several conferences about
Joomla (opensource content managment system) with 200-300 participants
and therefore I was looking for a low-budget wifi-solution that is able
to handle this number of clients. I decided to use a few raspberry pi's
with atheros-based usb wifi dongles which worked great in my little test
environment but crashed in the real conference setup.

I took a look at the logfiles and it seems that the issue is related to
the number of clients that can be handled by the driver/firmware, which
is 8 (ATH9K_HTC_MAX_STA). Is there any chance to increase this limit to
make the dongles usable in large-scale applications?

David
