I have a commercial AP that is using a CM9 ath5k radio (evidently, I could be wrong)
and it has the ability to do a constant transmit of raw noise (RF probe shows
noise, but a monitor-port sniffer does not see any frames from the CM9).
I don't know the low-level details of how it is doing this, but I suspect
it is using something like madwifi for a driver.
Does anyone know how this can be done with modern software and
ath5k or ath9k NICs?
Hi Ben,
I wrote some code to do this on ath5k -- I can post a patch if you're
interested in using ath5k for this.
Here's a snapshot of what it looks like when running on ch.1:

I would be interested in seeing those patches.
ath5k is probably cheaper and easier to find than carl9170 nics.
Personally, such patches for ath9k would be best, but ath5k is still interesting.
Thanks,
Ben
