Re: brcmsmac on BCM4313: frames 11n not shown in monitor mode

Sure Arend, here in attach the capture file, I dont have time to clean
it, so I send it to you as-is.
Of course the capture was taken by BCM4313 in monitor.
The AP is set to 11n *ONLY* (NO mixed mode b/g/n), bssid is
00:1f:a4:de:03:b2, filtering from that you will find all what you need.
The sta is an ath9k (74:e5:43:93:56:82) from Windows, WPA encrypted,
during the capture it was always connected and transferring (tcp,http,
icmp, arp, dhcp, and so on..), I just did a reconnect 1 time to produce
the setup frames you need.
Fyi, here also the last part of dmesg output:
