Hello all,
we are currently evaluating whether ath5k/ath9k is able to replace Madwifi for
a project we are working on. We use Madwifi (among other things) to transmit
Video streams over multicast to a group of nodes in an IBSS network. To get
the required data rate we rely on the Madwifi iwpriv call mcast_rate.
Is there an equivalent configuration option in mac80211?

Regards
Joerg

No. We briefly talked about this at one of the last wireless summits,
and it could be implemented with the cfg80211 operation
set_bitrate_mask() which we modelled for that, but never implemented all
of it.
