Is there a way to determine what a/b/g/n modes a particular phy
supports?  I tried 'iw phy', but I didn't see anything
obvious.

Thanks,
Ben

Both a/b/g (ath5k) and /n (ath9k) show top speed of 54Mbps
on my systems.

There should also be a "HT TX/RX MCS rate indexes supported:" for n rates.

That is unique, so I can use that.

Next time someone is hacking on this, though, it would be nice for
a simple print-out of the various a/b/g/n modes supported!

Thanks,
