Do you use 11n on a daily basis on FreeBSD and can test things?

Hi, given we need to get towards 11n for newer Intel (and others) and 11ac I was reading code (for other purposes actually) and was wondering who is using 11n on a daily basis on FreeBSD? And if you are willing/able to test changes? If so please let me know the following and reply to me privately (Reply-To is set!) and I'll assemble a list. I may share the list with others working on wireless. Please answer the following questions (adjusting wlan0 etc. to your setup): (1) Are you using 11n on FreeBSD on a daily basis? [y/n] (2) Are you willing to the patches for drivers/kernel timely (say within a week)? [y/n] (2a) On FreeBSD CURRENT (main)? [y/n] (2b) On FreeBSD stable/14? [y/n] (2c) On FreeBSD stable/13? [y/n] (3) Which hardware/chipset/driver are you using? Please provide (3b depending on PCI or USB [*]): (3a) ifconfig -v wlan0 | egrep -Ev "^[[:space:]](ether|inet)" (3b-i) pciconf -lv `ifconfig wlan0 | awk '/parent interface/ { print $3 }'` (3b-ii) usbconfig show_ifdrv | grep `ifconfig wlan0 | awk '/parent interface/ { print $3 }'` | cut -d: -f1 | xargs -n 1 -J % usbconfig -d % dump_device_desc (4) What is your AP? (4a) If FreeBSD please provide the answers from (3) for it as well. (4b) Otherwise (as you know) - Vendor/Model/Chipset (vendor) if known and if can you get statistics/errors/logs/... from it? (5) Can I share your details with others working on wireless? [y/n] Thanks, Bjoern [*] We should really make our tooling simpler to be able to get this info. Improvemnts to scripting also welcome :) -- Bjoern A. Zeeb r15:7
