At least not formally, as this sentence is written, since VHT per the spec requires operating on the 5 GHz band, and it also requires 80 MHz bandwidth which isn't even available in 2.4 GHz in many countries. What you really "want" is to use VHT modulations, mostly for the dubious purpose of marketing benchmarks to reach 256-QAM modulations. I think the de-facto standard for this would be to use IEs similar to VHT ones, encapsulated in some (Broadcom?) vendor IE. We may have to work with that, but that's not what this patch does. Jouni had some better idea how this worked, I think. Also, as written, this patch has practically no effect because no driver can or should advertise real VHT support on 2.4 GHz band, even if the code structure were to allow that. johannes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
