Hi Jouni,

Rather than refusing to start the AP, my hostapd patch would throw an error message indicating that HE configuration is not supported and would instead start the AP in HT/VHT configuration.
This would result in a seamless end user experience.

Does this approach seem to be fair ?

Thanks,
Deepti


Hi

I personally and professionally would not like something like that.
When i configure something i expect it to be exactly what i configured.
Auto-magically changing what is running to something that is not specified just leads to unexpected surprises later on...

PS:
If you want to hide config errors from your endusers,
why don't you adjust the code that generated the config for
hostapd to auto-magically mangle the hostapd-config?
