Dear all,

I am using hostapd 0.7.3 stable release as make atherose based (having  
ar9287 chipset) wifi module in AP and other settings.

Acually, i want to set the module's hw_mode(Network mode) with some  
options as listed bellow.

1) b only mode
2) g only mode
3) n only mode
4) b&g mode
5) b&n mode
6) g&n mode
7) mixed (b/g&n) mode

i have referred hostapd.conf and as per my knowledge, i think it can  
allow to set options as bellow listed modes.

1) b only mode [by hw_mode=b and ieee80211n=0]
2) g only mode [by hw_mode=g and ieee80211n=0]

5) b&n mode [by hw_mode=b and ieee80211n=1]
6) g&n mode [by hw_mode=g and ieee80211n=1]

    If, i am correct?

and also, how to set rest of options, like
3) n only mode
4) b&g mode
7) mixed (b/g&n) mode

Thanks,
Darshan Prajapati.

You'd better to compile hostapd from sources (trunk or release candidate) 
if you want to use n-mode. As I remember 0.7.3 works bad in N.

Yes.

> 2) g only mode [by hw_mode=g and ieee80211n=0]

Yes.

>> 5) b&n mode [by hw_mode=b and ieee80211n=1]

Yes.

Yes.

n-mode works on top of b/g-mode, so you can not enable just "n". 
Also you can play with ht_capab parameter, for ex to use HT40 mode.
I'm currently use ht_capab=[HT40-][SHORT-GI-40][DSSS_CCK-40][TX-STBC][RX-STBC1] 
with TP-Link TL-WN851N (ar9xxx chip).

> 4) b&g mode
> 7) mixed (b/g&n) mode

Can't give an answer to you about b-mode, it's a bit old and I never used it.

好像我的WIFI Client只支持b和g mode, 即使WIFI Server设置为n mode, 
Client也只能支持到g mode.
