Hello all! I have a group of machine here with an app that needs to set
up an ad-hoc network in 5Ghz+ range. The machines themselves are all
different (a Panasonic, a Dell, and a Lenovo) but they are all using
5100 cards, a 2.6.31 kernel, and the 2.6.31-rc7 driver from the website.

Using the command "iw list" I can get a lot of helpful info, but I see
"no IBSS" on any channel over 11, and I'm beginning to think that this
just isn't supported on these cards yet. Am I right here, or is it in
fact supported and I am just missing something? Could the hardware,
perhaps, be configured on a very low level to not allow something like
this?

Thanks in advance. :)
