I found a post from a year or so ago that indicates hostapd doesn't
support this type of thing (that could have changed, of course).
Do you know of any commercial APs that support the HT-only feature?
(And/Or a general strategy for configuring it?)

Seems to me that the probe-request is to any/all APs,
so how could we possibly know that we should send it
at 6Mbps v/s 1Mbps until we discovered and communicated
with it?
Thanks,
