Subject: [RFC V2 1/8] nl80211: add 6GHz band definition to enum nl80211_band
Date: Tue, 25 Jun 2019 13:10:20 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1561461027-10793-2-git-send-email-arend.vanspriel@broadcom.com> (raw)

In the 802.11ax specification a new band is introduced, which
is also proposed by FCC for unlicensed use. This band is referred
to as 6GHz spanning frequency range from 5925 to 7125 MHz.
