Hello all,
I work for a company that has legal permission (from the local FCC equivalent) to use channels outside those licensed for normal 802.11 operations. For an existing product we consider moving to an embedded Linux design.
What mac80211 driver/firmware combinations do not enforce the regulatory channel restrictions? I tried to switch to channel 14 with bcm43xx-mac80211 (ieee80211_regdom was set to 64, e.g. Japan) and failed. So in this case this was probably the firmware interfering for my own good.

Regards
Joerg

No, that would've been the driver, the firmware has nothing to do with
the radio frequency at all.
